CD32 Games Install Kit v4.1 NG Released
The CD32 Games Install Kit v4.1 NG has been released on the Airsoft Softwair homepage.

Amiga-Community.net


Amiga-Community.net now with Customer Portal
Amiga-Community.net perhaps is the only customer portal for Amiga. You can give your opinion about products or websites for Amiga. One can enter anything dealing with Amiga, e.g. shareware - freeware - hardware - software - .....

You can also suggest new categories and products. Some products are already in, these just need to be rated, now. But there is no reimbursement as with similar services.

Heise: Corel Parts with Their Linux Branch
As it looks like Corel will do part with their Linux branch.

Heise wrote:
«Though Corel Corporation will publish their this year's strategy first on 23rd of January, analysers estimate that corel will part with their Linux branch. In reply on these notions in US reports Corel's share value rose at 7.5 % at the American technology stock exchange Nasdaq, last Monday. Already in December speculations came up about Corel might take this step. »

Picture Supplement regarding WoA 2000
Mirko Nauman has sent us a whole lot of pictures from the WoA2000. Unfortunately we cannot publish all of these, cause 34 MB are simply way too much. We selected the nicest pictures and made a little catalog out of these which you can find here.

This is how the pictures were taken:

Mirko filmed on the show with his MiniDV video camera SONY DCR-TRV8E and then connected this camera via SVHS cable to his second Amiga with PicassoIV and PalomIV TV module. As his camera takes 25 frames per second he had to select and save the best pictures. Then he converted the pictures saved before to JPEG using the picture format converting software GfxCon by Dirk Farins.

Eternity News: MPG Video-card / USB for AMIGA
Eternity wrote:
We are looking for some developers for the realising of an MPEG-Video-card or a USB-card for the Amiga in co-operation with Kato Development:

Programmers that develop drivers and host programs, based on Linux-sources, for the Amiga. We consider the following suppositions:
  1. The intention to develop something 'New' for the Amiga.
  2. There has to be some time available.
  3. You have to know that you wont become a millionaire by developing for the Amiga.
  4. Will for co-operation.
  5. C and C++
  6. Know about the Amiga-hardware.

With the knowhow of Kato and some other persons we will try to develop one of the above mentioned products. We make no promises!

Additionally we are looking for distributors that would like to support the investment and will get better conditions.

And last but not least we would like to come in contact with other projects of this kind, cause if there are already projects like this running, we will renounce ours.

CES: Interview with Grant Courville, QNX
At CES, Christoph Dietz has interviewed Grant Courville from QNX (English translation by Martina Jacobs):

QNX, also one of more than 1,500 exhibitors on CES in Las Vegas, is still in mind of the Amiga community as a partner for the Amiga platform from the age of Jeff Schindler and later of Jim Collas. About that time, development after that - and regarding this most of all about porting to PPC boards by phase5 taken in consideration - I talked to Grant Courville.


QNX presents Neutrino

Neutrino not an a PC for once

Darrin Fry, manager Photon development, proudly prensents how the Amiga operating system would have looked like, if there wasn't any change of direction.


To Courville, former development manager and now manager of the "World Wide Sales Engineering", after the end of development together with Amiga, QNX benefits from many users' and developers' feedback QNX received. Those days QNX had placed "QNX on disk", their operating system with browser, TCP/IP stack and some demos, on one single 1,44 MB disk. Also the neutrino's multimedia capabilities made capital from the developments which - by the way - mainly were done by QNX. But also the marketing effect would have been very fortunate for the company's further assignment.

The splitting of the Amiga community into QNX and Linux supporters, which rose Jim Collas' decision, he regards to be the most negative effect imaginable. He will take a look at the AmigaSDK in any case, cause "perhaps there might be another future for QNX and Amiga". He thinks porting to QNX would not be a big problem.

As in July 1999 the porting of neutrino to the PowerUP boards by phase5 was announced (see our message) users started hoping, again. But there never was more to see than the press release. Unfortunately phase5 never delivered any PPC board to enable QNX to use the Amiga computer available. Contact to phase5 dropped away as time went by. Though there is the QNX operation system for PPC processors in the meantime, but just not for PPC equipped Amiga computers, cause there is no matching to the typically Amiga custom chips. Due to the minor number of existing boards chances for porting are to estimate as very low, said Courville finally.

After days of considering hither and thither I have decided to abandon the Amiga. That means that ATP will be released in its momentarily development state (version 0.9 beta) and also that I offer my Amiga for sale. More about this on the homepage.

ATP is a address book/organizer software.
