Is there still any interest in "TheAnswerIII"?
Matthias Sar is looking for all users who still work or have worked
with TheAnswerIII and don't want that such a good POINT program simply
fades away. Please contact Matthias Sar
with your name, who will collect the votes and pass them on to the author.
Sar wants to ask the author (Wegar) to give his project (TA3) into the
hands of programmers who still see some sense in supporting TA3. Alternatively,
maybe the author can be persuaded to release a public keyfile so that all
interested users can use the program.

|
Clarissa-HTTPd
Clarissa-HTTPd is another HTTP-Server which is programmed in AREXX and can be a good alternative to
the giant Apache. If you read the enclosed documentation you can see which operations are possible with the server.
For more information please have a look at the readme-file. But there is still one disadvantage (for some people
it might be an advantage): The current version has been written completely in German as well as the script
of the server itself and the examples of the CGI-scripts.
Download:
Clarissa_HTTPd.lha -
readme
or at the homepage of Clarissa-HTTPd (see title link).

New Company: SurvivorOrg
«After the recent news of Crystal Software and Electronics (CS&E) leaving the
Amiga market, and the following news that Dirk Harlaar would be the new managing
director of CS&E, this news has to be rectified once again. Managing director of
CS&E, David Connolly, has decided to stay managing director of his company.
However, CS&E will no longer be active in the Amiga market. A new company has
been founded, Survivor Org., which has gotten the rights to any Amiga publications
CS&E had. Managing director of this company is Dirk Harlaar. (And this is the final,
true news). Survivor Org. will focus on Amiga software, and we hope to bring you
more news about forthcoming releases soon. Please understand that this new company
is still in the very early days. We do have some games signed up already, but it is
much to early to say anything about them yet. Cosmos Fun Class, the educational
program that "came with the inventory of CS&E" will be released shortly by Survivor
Org.»

AmigaWriter-Import Filter for Pagestream
Ruediger Hanke has uploaded version 0.9 of his AmigaWriter-import filter to the web.
The filter loads documents of AmigaWriter version 1.0-2.20 to PageStream. For instance it makes possible:
- printing documents of AmigaWriter to PostScript
- exporting documents of AmigaWriter to PDF
- using AmigaWriter as WYSIWYG-replacement for PageLiner
You can find a detailed list in the section "Technical Notes" which elements of documents of AmigaWriter
can be imported and which cannot, and how conflicts resulting from the different implementation of
some features in AW and PGS can be solved.
For more information, a screenshot and for downloading please have a look at the title link.

Fun Time World - Change of Server
Since this morning our site Fun Time World is no longer
accessible. This was caused by the change of the server that happened not completely without any problems.
We truly hope that all problems will be solved today. In the meantime you can alternatively use the
following site: home.t-online.de/home/funtime.

Rainer Benda takes off OS-software from net
Rainer Benda has taken off all Kickstart- and Workbench-disks from his
website
by order of Amiga Inc.
Until its bankruptcy in spring of 1994 Commodore(C=) Germany offered in the support-area of their own
mailbox "Combo" some Amiga-software for download. The Amiga-Workbench-disks, -Kickstart-files as well as
ROM`s and utility-disks among other files.
These files were only meant for support and were only allowed to be downloaded to supply some
newer versions of C=`s software or if a disk was faulty. Rainer Benda, former employee of
Commodore Germany, was SysOp of this mailbox.
In 1994 Commodore bankrupted and Rainer Benda first took over these files as far as they were existing
on his own mailbox "Black-Zone" and later on his own website, and offered those under the conditions
of the Combo for free support. In this way Amiga-user could use this offer over a long time without
any problems. He solved legal doubts with the liquidator of Commodore Hembach, and later with
Petro Tyschtschenko (Amiga International, Amiga Germany).
During the last years Commodore was auctioned to Escom, Escom bankrupted and after a while the rights
of Commodore were given to Gateway. During this time there were no doubts on the legal status of the
files neither by the owner nor by the liquidator Hembach.
At the end of 1999 the firm Amino (today Amiga Inc.) founded by Bill McEwen and Fleecy Moss bought the
Amiga-rights from Gateway.
In April 2000 first Benda got the request by Cloanto to remove
the OS-files from the website. Together with Amiga Forever Cloanto sells an Amiga-emulation-packet based on
UAE which contains the OS-files with a paid licence. (The reason for this request is explained by
Cloanto generally at Distribution of Amiga ROM and
OS Files. Because there was not a statement of the new owner to the legal status of the files
until this time, Benda did not comply with the request.
Some days later Benda got the urgent request by Gary Peake, Amiga Inc., to remove all software from his
website which is under copyright of Amiga. After some discussions between Benda and Amiga, Benda
removed the AmigaOS V3.1 Kickstart- and Workbench-disks from the net to protect the interests of Cloanto.
Since then there were no other reactions. From the point of view of Benda you can read up this course of events in the part
3.1 of his essay
"Meine Story zum Untergang von C=" (German).
To this time the AmigaPlus CD No. 3/2000 was released that contains the Kickstart- and Workbench-files up to
Amiga V2.0 and nearly all other support-files with permission of Petro Tyschtschenko without paying
any licence. Only the Kickstart- and Workbench-files of AmigaOS 2.1 up to 3.1 are not on this CDRom.
These commercial sales were possible without paying something for the licence without any problems.
Furthermore Kickstart 1.3/3.0 and Workbench 3.0 appeared on the CD of the PC-magazine UAE No. 3/2000.
At the end of October 2000 Benda got a letter of the department of law of the German Telekom with the
request of removing all files from the websites http://home.t-online.de/r.benda/soft2.html, and
http://home.t-online.de/home/r.benda/soft3.html. This request was caused by Gary Peake.
These sites contained the remained Amiga-Workbench-disks, Amiga-Kickstarts as well as BETA-/development-software.
Benda complied with this request that means there is no longer any AmigaOS-software for exchanging
faulty disks for download on his website. Amiga itself offers a corresponding help. If you have got
faulty Workbench-disks or something like that you can contact Amiga
for help.
