Woa pictures
The first exhibiton day was gut visited and as could be read in the different
announcements there were interesting presentations of hard- and software all
over the place. As usual we'll supply you with comprehensive information about
all details in our exhibition review.
You can get a first impression through our pictures. Besides the photos by Petra Struck
under the title link Torsten Dudai has also
captured his impressions.

New public beta of AmigaAmp
Just in time for the end of the WoA'2000 there's a new version of AmigaAmp.
Originally Thomas Wenzel had planned to release the final version 2.8 these
days. But there are two features he didn't want to psh back for later releases:
MAS-Player Support
The MAS-Player is an external MPEG-audio-decoder for the parallel port and can be
used with EVERY Amiga. The support in AmigaAmp exists in the form of a new
driver system developed by Paul Qureshi together with Dirk Conrad and Thomas
Wenzel. With the combination AmigaAMP and MAS-Player it is possible to play
MP3-files in full quality even on 68030 Amigas. Dirk himself offers a special
highly optimised software which makes playback of MP3 even on a 68000. The
MAS-Player is distributed by Eternity (Martin Wolf).
Shoutcast Streaming
Shoutcast is a protocol for live broadcastings of radio transmissions via the internet.
>From the today released version on AmigaAMP doesn't need an external program for
receiving such transmissions. The necessary protocol is directly integrated.
The two named features are still in development and don't run 100% stable. For
a first impression it is enough though. The new version of AmigaAMP is
downloadable from www.amigaamp.de.

Digital Almanac III Xmas update
Because of illness the release of the Xmas update for DA3 may be delayed some
days. Because of the same reason a preview of the new features was only possible
just now.
Under the title link you can find a summary of the new features including
screenshots.

WOA: Eyetech - AmigaOne/AmigaDE-Roadmap
Together with the partners Escena
(Martin Schueler) and Hyperion Software
(further partners are Haage&Partner (68k-Emulation) and Michael Rock(PCI/AGP-Resource
Libraries and other things)) the company Eyetech has presented their plans
regarding their AmigaOne computer. Fun Time World has released
diagrams
of this presentation.
The AmigaOne 1200 from Eyetech is a PPC-PCI-system plus Amga hardware and
68k-emulation for use with Amiga Classic and AmigaDE software. The PPC system is
based on the project
Brainstormer by Escena.
Via the WestBridge
of the system the A1200, IDE, 1 AGP- and 4 PCI-slots are connected. Via the
NorthBridge the PPC-cpu, the SDRAM, USB and two more PCI-slots. The
PPC
can access the Amiga-system (custom chips, Chip RAM, Amiga I/O).
On starting the system the FlashROM is copied into the SDRAM, then the
68k-emulator respectively the AmigaDE is activated and the Amiga Classic'
booted. The Amiga Classic software now runs on top of the 68k-emulation on the
AmigaOne-board (PPC) and uses the Amiga specific hardware of the integrated
A1200-board.
The emulation only emulates the command set of the 68k-cpu-line but no Amiga
specific hardware like AGA which exists as real hardware. The emulation is
memory intensive and therefore needs a fast memory access. For a step-by-step
adaption of the software 'in-line'-PPC-code is supported.
The following planned schedule is given in the diagrams.
Amiga Classic
- 12/2000: developer system
- 01/2001: Classic OS-drivers
- 01/2001: 680x0-emulator
- 02/2001: system for betatesters
- 1. quarter 2001: finished version of the AmigaOne A1200 for use as extended
Amiga Classic (PPC, PCI/AGP-Slots)
AmigaDE
- 07/2001: AmigaDE for end-users
- 07/2001: AmigaDE graphics, drivers and so on
- 08/2001: AmigaDE port for (every) AmigaOne possible
- 1. quarter 2002: availability of ready-to-use applications especially for
AmigaDE

Open source: Bars&Pipes Pro 2.0
Alfred Faust has released an email of Todor Fay, the former chief programmer of
Blue Ribbon Soundworks Inc., on ANF that is dated 9. December 2000. In this
email Todor Fay announces the release of the source code of Bars&Pipes Pro
V2.0. Besides bugfixes this will make the continued development of the
sequencer possible.
For now Fay is collecting together the source code. For this he needs help from
one or more Amiga developers with an up and running Amiga developer environment.
«I think we can work towards a better solution:
I've gotten clearance to release the source code for
Bars&Pipes to the Amiga community. This means several
things:
1) Known bugs can be fixed.
2) Perhaps y'all can create special hooks for real time
services (timer, midi in and out) in the Amiga code so it
can connect more directly with the services in Windows. It's
pretty amazing that timing works at all, given that it is
running on an emulation of the audio interrupt (kudos to
Brian King!). 'Course that would require changes to WinUAE
to support this.
3) Port Bars&Pipes to Windows. If people want to collaborate
on such a project, I will very gladly provide advice and
assistance.
At this point, I'm collecting together the source code. I
need to work with one or more developers who have Amiga dev
environments up and running to help put this together. We
need to make sure everything is there and compiles
correctly.
Any volunteers?
Todor»

AmigaDE: James Russell manages Mozilla porting
James Russell is the leader
of the Mozilla-engine-porting for AmigaDE.
Mozilla is the open source browser project
emerged from the Netscape browser.
To begin with Russell has contacted mozdev.org
about the possibility of hosting the necessary infrastructure (webspace, CVS,
mailing list) for the project. It would then become accessible under
mozamiga.mozdev.org.
Everybody who wants to help in porting, give constructive ideas or feedback may
post on the Open Amiga-Mailingliste
or address directly to James Russell.
He is to find on the IRC-channels #mozamiga at irc.mozilla.org
and #developer at irc.whiterose.net.
He suggests to interested people to have a look at the NSPR-Video on
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/seamonkey/brownbag.htmlfor now,
which informs in a comprehensive way about the NSPR module. This module presents the
biggest hurdle for the Mozilla-port for AmigaDE.

BoXer Board Status
On the Anti-Gravity page there is a press release dated November, 29th 2000
concerning the BoXer mainboard.
Current BoXeR prototype main-boards feature the emulated AGA chip-set on three
single chips. The final revision will integrate the AGA into one single chip.
The redesign has been completed and it is ready for build up. It is planned
to make this board with one single AGA chip available for the AmigaActive
magazine for testing purpose end of December.
The distributor network is growing. According to the latest survey there are
currently more than 500 distributors of the BoXer.
Our employment survey also got great and worldwide response. Anit-Gravity is
hoping to be able to contact everyone who replied to talk about possibilities
to enable all of them to take part in developing this system.

Open Source Campaign planning to create a Counsil
The 'Campaign to Open Source the AmigaOS' campaign created by Steve Crietzman
is making efforts to release the AmigaOS sources as open source. In recent times it has
been quiet around this campaign. This was due to the fact that Crietzman had
taken a longer break, because work had gotten to much to handle. Now he regrets
to have been absent for so long without any explanation.
The current plan involves the creation of a transition plan for the Open
Amiga Foundation. Therefore they are looking for participants. Persons
interested in this initiative might contact OpenAmiga@aol.com.
