Wzonka-Lad sources released under GPL
Wzonka-Lad had been one of the best Gameboy emulators for the 68k AGA Amiga.
Since a long time, though, there haven't been neither any updates nor any news. Now has
the author released the sources of the emulator under GPL. So there's now hope that there may come some updates should there be a programmer to continue the development.

Golem: Games Convention speeches: How to become a games developer?
Quite many enthusiastic gamers dream of becoming a developer in the games industry. But only a small number has really an imagination of the qualifications needed for this and how a typical working day of a games developer looks like. The Berlin team SEK will do some educational work at the Games Convention 2003 in Leipzig (Germany) about this topic.

Amiga Society: News about BBoAH and Schlachtfeld
The Big Book of Amiga Hardware by Ian Chapman had been updated again and comes now with even more comprehensive information.
Furthermore does the work on Schlachtfeld continue. Right now are especially Christian and Michael preparing the beta tests. For this is a portal built up that will be used by the testers to report their results to the developers using a form. Additionally will some polls be held in the near future regarding this subject.
For the time being is the team looking for beta testers and, should the occasion arise, some programmers for MorphOS. The tests will probably start at the end of the month. People who want to take part in theses should just send an email to Horst Diebel.

Major Update for ALGOR / ROMulus FlashROM Software
E3B, makers of the well known USB solutions for Amiga Classic, and Chris Hodges,
programmer of many well known software solutions, a.o.t. the USB stack Poseidon,
are glad to announce being able to make available an update for the FlashROM
solutions developed by E3B.
In this update existing functionality has been optimized and expanded as well as
some problems with some system configurations fixed.
Thus users of the USB controller ALGOR as well as the FlashROM module
ROMulus (HIGHWAY) have a mature and field-tested solution for the
integration of additional software modules already at cold boot time at their
disposal.
A short overview over the new functions:
- Special treatment for exec.library and romupdate.idtag. Thus there is for
the first time a full replacement for OS3.9's RomUpdate functionality.
- increased speed by way of switching on the processor cache.
- Workarounds for accelerator boards whose memory is not RomTag able. This
solves many problems with certain accelerator boards even in Amiga 1200 tower
rebuildings.
- Many internal changes and corrections, making the bootloader more stable and
safer. Special attention has been paid to highest compatibility with unusual
accelerator boards.
The basic functions of ALGOR and ROMulus are essentially
unchanged:
- comfortable user interface for programming the FlashROM (MUI).
- In case of an emergency the most important functions can be reached without
MUI via command line.
- Drag'n'Drop when configuring the FlashROM via MUI.
- transparent and reset fast integration of any ROM modules.
- use of USB stack Poseidon directly on cold boot time.
- abolition of the OS3.9 ROM-Patch-Reset by integrating the ROM updates and
thus faster boot tie of the computer.
- Booting the Amiga from USB mass storage directly after cold boot possible.
- full replacement of Amiga mouse and keyboard by respective USB devices via
new input.device (also in the boot menu if OS 3.9 BoingBag 2 present).
- easy switching off of the ROM modules during bootup possible.
- integrated transparent compression for efficient usage of the FlashROM.
The ALGOR resp. the FlashROM module ROMulus (upgrade for
HIGHWAY) each have 512kb (256kx16 resp. 4 MBit) FlashROM which can be
easily programmed via the user interface Luciferin. The FlashROM allows highest
possible speed when booting the computer by way of wordwise access and the
extremely early activation; use is possible in all Zorro II and Zorro III
systems (also A1200 tower with Zorro slots).
The update for Luciferin is available exclusively for registered owners of ALGOR
and ROMulus - all registered users are mailed by E3B and receive the update by
eMail. Should you have not yet registered, please send in your filled in
registration card or contact E3B by eMail (mboehmer@e3b.de).
A warm thank you at this place to Hartmut Schulze for his support through
extensive bug reports and hints.
