Novia INS version 0.74.02 beta released
A new version of the Open Source BBS System NOVIA is available from my homepage. The
project is under GNU General Public License, so the source code is included in the
archive. The program can be downloaded as lha archive at
novia.lha. There now is a (simple)
technical documentation for
the program. Moreover, I am looking for programmers, documentation writers, translators
and beta testers helping me to bring this project to "final" state.

Lambda - 3d space action game
In his Lambda status report Mikko says that most basic functions of the new 3D engine
have been defined and implemented in OpenGL. That "Descent: Freespace" will now be ported
was a slap in his face, since he begun Lambda development because there were no up-to-date
3D space action games for Amiga. After he recovered from the initial shock, he is wildly
determined to make Lambda better than its pendant.
Does anybody know the e-mail address of Mikko Kallinen? If so, please send a short
e-mail.

BUGFIX Installerscript VersCheck V2
Three days ago a bug sneaked into the VersCheckV2 Installer script. For those who didn't already
fix the bug on their own:
- The fixed archive is on my homepage, and will soon be available from Aminet too. Download:
VersCheckV2.lha
- Only available from my homepage is a second archive containing only the Installer script.
Download: VersCv2Fix1.lha - 11 Kb.
- For those daring enough: In line 31 of the script, a ")" is missing at the end of the line -
that's it. Somehow it got lost. The Installer message says line 1163 or such, because the effect
of the missing bracket is not recognized earlier.

Amiga RC5 Team Effort News
Andreas Mayer-Gürr writes:
1.) CSC: A new PC client, twice as fast as the old one, is
available.
2.) RC5: An older 68k (beta) RC5 client is available, which does not support some
details of the latest client (like status bar and statistics with Myzar), but is about 30%
faster. I tried it and it works very well, my 68060 does about 148 kkeys/sec instead of the
117 kkeys it did before. If you only use the client for calculating, I did not encounter
problems. So:
2a.) get blocks with the latest client
2b.) calculate blocks with the
beta client
2c.) submit blocks with the latest client, and continue with 2a.)...

X-Surf network cards delivered
Jens Schönfeld writes:
This morning, the X-Surf ethernet cards have been delivered
to all distributors at the same time, a full week delayed. The delay of the delivery was
however not due to technical problems, but due to my car accident: I was busy handling
police, insurance and the company that towed away my car (by the way, anyone interested
in a Volvo 850 crash car?). Since the cards will reach customers before christmas, however,
I think I can be pardoned, can I?

Cloanto Releases Amiga Forever Holiday Bundle: New ROMs & MP3s
For all Amiga emulation enthusiasts who ever wondered what Workbench 1.0 looked like, or what
the late Jay Miner, "Father of the Amiga", has to say in his own voice about the Amiga and other
interesting issues, Cloanto just released the Amiga Forever Plus Pack, which contains new Amiga
ROM, Workbench and MP3 audio files! The Plus Pack joins the Amiga Forever family of emulation
and support products, which are officially licensed by Gateway's Amiga companies.
Only for the next few days, the Online Edition of Amiga Forever 3.0 (stand-alone) and the Amiga
Forever Plus Pack are available in a special holiday bundle for a special price.
The Amiga Forever Holiday Bundle includes the Amiga Forever Online Edition package, with its
preinstalled Amiga emulation environment (1.3 and 3.1 Amiga ROM and OS) and the Amiga Explorer
networking software, plus the following new items, which are part of the Plus Pack:
- Amiga Workbench ADF files v. 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 2.04 and 2.1
- Amiga ROM files v. 1.0, 1.1, 1.2 and 2.04 (WB 2.1 uses 2.04 ROM)
- Jay Miner MP3 Track 1: Birth of the Amiga
- Jay Miner MP3 Track 2: Computers and Society
- Jay Miner MP3 Track 3: A New Job
- New HTML pages, including instructions to play MP3 audio files
For download convenience, the items are archived in two files which can be downloaded separately,
also with the help of an optional download wizard. It is always possible to resume an interrupted
download, or to download the same file again at no additional cost. The Plus Pack is cross-platform,
while Amiga Forever Online Edition is for Windows systems only.
The Amiga Forever Holiday Bundle is available now from the Amiga Forever Home Page at
http://cloanto.com/amiga/forever/ (title link)
The Cloanto Team wishes all Amiga fans great holidays and a very happy New Year!

Translator wanted!
Since the "restart" of the English pages of Amiga-News, the daily translations are a one-man-job
again because Marek didn't respond so far.
I am looking for users willing (long-term) to do German - English translations regulary of all
news items appearing on a given day of the week (or two), and send them to me by e-mail.
You don't need to know HTML well. If you can type <A HREF=""> and <OBJECT><UL><LI>,
know the pop-up menu of your favourite browser and can handle a text editor, you qualify. :-)
Oh, and you should be able to read (and understand) German. ;-)
Those interested in supporting Amiga-News this way should contact me by e-mail.

amiga-news.de currently reworked
We are switching the website completely to SSI (Server Side Includes). Therefore some links
to subpages might not yet work perfectly. In this case, the "Home Button" does however always
bring you back to the main page. We hope to finish the change tonight (December 17th).
Tomorrow we will be back with the news.
