1. Implement a getter that returns the order of the tree.
2. Use this value to dynamically allocate stack space for the iterator methods instead of requiring the class user to allocate the buffer manually. (What do you think of THAT, Allan?? Trust me -- he likes it!)
3. Send a unique code into the iterators so that multiple iterators may still be used. ** The only problem is: who frees the stack buffers? I guess you'll need a FinishUsingIterator method.

Press Release

DATE:     14-Dec-99
TOPIC:    NL-editing system for Amiga, Flyer and Draco
CONTACT:  info@audiolabs.it


AmigaOS goes back to Hollywood!

EMRL (http://www.emrl.com) is handling the production of the first
AudioLabs (http://www.audiolabs.it) commercial shot on film, focusing
on the ProStationAudio software for AmigaOS.

Stills from the set are online at:
                 http://www.audiolabs.it/news.html
                 http://usa.audiolabs.it/news.html

The location was Chapman University audio studio, in Los Angeles.
The 30 second commercial was shot in color using an Arriflex SR16
camera, with Kodak Vision film. The script deals with a studio
recording session, involving a cellist playing in the recording
room, while a sound engineer works on ProStationAudio for AmigaOS
in the control room.

The film footage will be digitally captured for post-prodution
on an Amiga-based NewTek Flyer system. Audio post-production
will be performed with ProStationAudio itself.

EMRL is pioneering hi-quality film-based productions for Internet
distribution. Their film-based commercials are shot with care for
classic aspects of production such as lighting and exposure, and
also take into account Internet related details like video
compression and motion artifacts reduction.



To celebrate the last ProStationAudio release of this millennium,
AudioLabs is offering, until December 27th, 1999, the fresh new
ProStationAudio 2.50 at a special discount price.

When ordering before the deadline, you can get ProStationAudio 2.50
for US$299 instead of US$395.

ProStationAudio 2.50 is the ultimate solution for digital audio on
AmigaOS. It integrates with existing technologies and pushes them
forward: from native Studio16 files support to NewTek Flyer audio
clips import/export, from Draco binary compatibility to AHI-compatible
support for almost every card on the market, from Elite/SoundStage
EDL import to dual-CPU/dual-monitor operating modes.


Starting January, AudioLabs will expand the ProStationAudio family
of products with the hi-end ProStationAudio Millennium. The new
application, among other features, doubles editing power by
supporting 32 audio channels in the timeline.

ProStationAudio 2.50: New Features.

- PSA-AHI transdriver.
                    2.50 supports two families of audio drivers for
                    maximizing compatibility and flexibility. Beside
                    the orginal AudioLabs drivers you can now use any
                    AHI driver for realtime operations.

- Batch Import.
                    Select a directory and let ProStationAudio import
                    all the audio files, unattended. Great for handling
                    large MP3 collections or building effects libraries
                    on removable media for audio/video production.

- Tone generation.
                    Generate pure tones in the 5Hz:24000Hz range. 64bit
                    accuracy. Applications: test signals, striping of

_#TWF News.#_

#1. TWF Opinion Polls#
#2. Explorer 2260 Update.#
#3. Maim & Mangle Update.#
#4. Next News Update#

~~~~~~

#1. TWF Opinion Polls#

There has only been only poll held this month which asked the question:
"What is your favourite type of game ?".

This was split into 10 different game types with the top 2 choices being
RPGs and Space Sims with the votes of 37 and 33 respectively. Well no
surprise you're all wanting a good space sim. :)

A new poll will appear soon.


#2. Explorer 2260 Update.#

Here are a few of the things that have been done for Explorer 2260 in
November:

    - RedHat 6 (LinuxPPC 3Q99) has been installed and, while lots of setup
work
      still needs to be finished, work on the Linux server core routines is
      continuing.

    - More background documents for the CEG are being created.


#3. Maim & Mangle Update.#

Work is continuing on M&M and here is what has happened in November on
development.

    - (temporary) removed the obj's shadow due a few bugs.

    - Optimized the 3D math routines.

    - The collision routine now working perfectly (in the sense that it
      recognize a collision situation.)

    - Removed a lot of bugs.

    - The loading routines are now a little bit faster.

    - New Warp3D supporting Object Editor for 68k (PPC version coming soon).

    - Further M&M game design thrashed out.


#4. Next News Update#

31st December 1999 / 1st January 2000 (Wahey!!) Or maybe /slightly/ later in
the new year. :)

~~~~~

All the best,
Ed.

Hi!

(Any replies please to MagicSN@Birdland.es.bawue.de)

I recently tested the latest Beta Version of Heretic II (i am Betatester)
concerning speed, and did a speedtest, where i compared the speed with the
speed on the PC of my
little brother of the PC Version of Heretic II. In both cases the SOFTWARE
RENDERER was used.

Hardware Data:

Amiga:

Cyberstorm PPC 604e 150 MHz (yes, only 150, i have a lowend 604e Board...)
Cybervision/PPC
OS: AmigaOS 3.0 (3.5 is ordered, but not yet arrived)+ WarpOS V4

PC:

Pentium II 300 MHz
Riva TNT (TNT 1) Based AGP-Bus Graphics Board
OS: Windows 95

Remember: All speed is done with SOFTWARE RENDERER, for both systems, for
fairness :)

The values (i tested at different places, but of course PC and Amiga version
were always tested at the same place):

Level                Amiga Speed (150 MHz)        PC Speed
(300 MHz)

dmandoria                 31 fps                 60 fps
oglemine1                 35 fps                 72 fps
oglemine1 different location with         24 fps
45 fps
lots of monsters visible
hive1 (lot of transparency FX)          9 fps                 27 fps
no typical situation for the game

And now some values in a higher resolution:

Startlevel in 400x300             24 fps                 41 fps
Startlevel in 640x480             10 fps                 19 fps

On an average i was usually (in 320x240) at:

                    25-30 fps                 around
50-70 fps

I estimate on a 233 MHz the average should be around 40-50 fps in typical
situations...

What do we learn of this ?

1. On an average the Amiga Version has the same speed like the PC version
   (at least if we had a PC with the same MHz-number, 31*2 = 62 fps
   for example, where the PC version had 60 fps, the Amiga Version 31 fps
   (first example)

2. Massive Transparency Effects are the death for every software-renderer,
   no matter if Amiga or PC. Luckily these effects are not displayed
   all the time. Situations like at the start of hive1 only happen in very
   few situations (hive1 is actually the slowest level in the whole game, it
   seems, at least at a certain position in the level)

3. The speed value of Heretic II is actually quite nice, even on a lowend
   PPC like mine, on a 233 MHz you will have values around 233/150 times
   as fast.

4. We can expect much more from 3D Hardware (Warp3D Support) (On PC there
   was a REALLY HUGE speedup for 3D Hardware, especially
   when Transparency was involved)

5. PCI/AGP did not give that much more speed than PowerUP-Bus/Zorro 3 (i did
   not do actual speedtests of Z3, but it is not
   that much slower than on Zorro 3. Also WB Window Mode is also not that
   much slower - though of course slower)

I was also told by Hyperion that they are currently making much progress for
the 68k version, and that it looks good that probably 060+software
renderer will be fast enough to get the game playable.

+++ Presseinformation von Planetamiga +++

In aller Kürze

Planetamiga gibt ab 25. November 99 den neuen Amiga-Info-Service "Movement
Amiga" heraus. Ein Printmagazin, das mit geringem technischen Aufwand
produziert und an die Adressaten in unserer Amiga-Datenbank verschickt
wird. Personen, die sich in diese Datenbank noch bis 25.11.99 eintragen
und deren Wohnadresse in Österreich ist (liegt an posttariflichen
Bestimmungen) erhalten die ersten drei Ausgaben des Magazins gratis. Ab
dann kostet eine Ausgabe öS 3,- (entspricht 0,22 euro). Das Magazin wird
vorerst in Schwarz-Weiß erscheinen und soll vornehmlich dazu dienen,
aktuellere Information zu erhalten, nachdem sich immer mehr Amiga-Magazine
aus dem Markt zurückgezogen haben. Finanziert soll das Magazin über
externe (nicht Amiga) Sponsoren werden, um hier nicht die "amigaOS", die
wir gerade in unser planet.eins.-Kundenpaket eingebunden haben, zu stören.

Neuer Infodienst für Österreich.

Am Donnerstag, dem 25. November 99 erscheint die erste Ausgabe des
"Movement Amiga". Vorerst werden wir uns sehr einfacher
Herstellungstechniken bedienen und die Finanzierung auf geringem Level
halten. Das Magazin wird nur wenige Seiten umfassen und als Kostprobe
während der ersten 3 Ausgaben gratis an alle Amiga-Anwender aus
Österreich, die sich in unserer Datenbank (bis Stichzeitpunkt 25. 11. 99,
15:00) befinden verschickt.

Informations-Unterversorgung in Österreich abdecken.

Angesichts der Tatsache, daß sich im Jahr 1999 schon drei namhafte
Amiga-Magazine aus dem Markt verabschiedet haben (AFever, ASpecial und A+)
wollten wir eine Alternative anbieten. Die Versorgung mit Information in
Österreich ist - besonders für jene, die nicht im Internet sind - zu
gering. Wir wollen mit dem neuen Infoservice in Form einer kleinen
Zeitschrift, versuchen dieses Manko auszubessern.

Keine Konkurrenz für die amigaOS

Da auch in letzter Zeit besonders von dem Problem des
Inserat-Preisdumpings zu hören war, was auch den Magazinen Schwierigkeiten
bereitete, wollen wir absichtlich nicht als Konkurrenz zur "amigaOS"
auftreten und haben daher auch nicht vor den Werbemarkt dieses Magazins
anzugreifen. Unsere Intention ist vielmehr das Magazin durch Firmen, die
nichts oder wenig mit dem Amiga zu tun haben, zu finanzieren
(Versicherungen, Sparkassen...) und so den geringen Preis aufrecht
erhalten zu können.

Niedrigstpreis-Produktion zum Einstieg

Zum Anfang wird "Movement Amiga" um öS 3,- erhältlich sein, wir werden uns
einem einfachen Druckverfahren ohne Farbe bedienen. Sollte uns der Erfolg
recht geben und das News-Magazin in Österreich gefragter sein, als wir
bisher erwarten und die Auflage steigen, ist eine professionelle
Produktion vorgesehen, dann dürfte sich aber auch am Preis noch etwas
ändern. Ziel von "Movement Amiga" ist es auch, daß die Aktualität der
Informationen erhöht wird, so soll das Magazin am Anfang im Takt von ca.
15 bis 20 Tagen erscheinen.

Inhalte des Magazins

Das Magazin wird sich vornehmlich mit aktuellen Infos beschäftigen, wir
wollen vorläufig keine Hard- oder Softwaretests veröffentlichen, auch
dieses Feld wollen wir der "amigaos", die sich hier als sehr kompetent
erwiesen hat, überlassen. "Movement Amiga" wird ein Infoservice für alle,
die am Ball bleiben wollen und sofort wissen wollen, wenn sich etwas im
Amiga-Bereich tut.

Auch in Deutschland?

Vorläufig nicht. Das liegt einerseits daran, dass wir den Preis bei den
restriktiven postrechtlichen Bestimmungen nicht aufrecht erhalten können
und für eine Massensendung auch in Deutschland viel zu wenige Datensätze
haben. Sollte sich das anders entwickeln, werden wir auch die Aussendung
nach Deutschland überlegen.

Und wie bezahle ich?

Die Abrechnung wird ganz einfach, wir zählen die Ausgaben, die ein Kunde
von uns bekommt einfach mit und sobald die 5. Ausgabe erreicht ist,
verlangen wir die Zahlung für die ersten 15 Ausgaben. Die ersten 5
Ausgaben werden wir vorfinanzieren. Die Bezahlung erfolgt ganz einfach per
Erlagschein.


A service for the planet. A planet for the amiga.

Editor's Thoughts and Introduction:

 The big Home Electronics World show has come and gone (November 12 -
14, in Cologne, Germany), and there were interesting items for Amiga
users. Amiga International had their large booth set up, and seemed to
generate a fair amount of interest. We weren't there, but are told
Petro Tyschtschenko was (almost) as upbeat as ever. However,
reflecting reality, there were fewer vendors than last year. The mood
was reportedly less positive, but that seemed to be based mainly on
there being no clear direction to the future, not fears of an imminent
death of the Amiga market.
 The folks at Haage & Partner demonstrated a 400 Mhz G3 Power PC
board, based on the IBM CHRP spec. It also featured PCI and AGP slots.
There are rumors a native PPC based AmigaOS port is being considered
for this board. If so, that's the most realistic possibility for a
future Amiga system we've seen yet. We understand the board was
presented as a development system though, not as a future Amiga.
However, and perhaps very significantly, Petro T. is quoted in an
article about HEW on the amiga.org website as stating "My first
priority now is to convert the OS to the PowerPC." Indications are
that Haage & Partner are willing to do the conversion. Is Amiga
willing to license it, providing the formal approval to call it Amiga?
We don't know, but feel this would be important to keep developers
focused, instead of trying to cover many different future
possibilities and spreading themselves too thinly.
 If CHRP can be abandoned in order to bring down the price of a PPC
board, then the future looks even better for a PPC system. There are
indications that this could become possible, with IBM leading the way
to a less expensive PPC standard. As we hear more about possible Amiga
PPC futures, we'll let you know.
 The Met@Box (AmiJoeG3) G3 Board for the A1200 was also demonstrated
at the Cologne Show. This is a PowerPC based accelerator, which does
not sport a 68K co-processor.
 Also of interest was the Unity Net Ethernet card. We've a story on
that product below.
 Finally, once again there was no BoXeR Computer to be seen, or so
we've been told.

 Over at Deja.com, a poll is being held on the most popular operating
system. Looks like the voting may be in several stages on different
features. Regardless, when we checked in Amiga OS was actually leading
the voting! It was way ahead of MonopolySoft's Windoze, and even ahead
of Linux. Most interesting and yes, it left me with a very smug
feeling.
 And, despite the current situation in the Amiga market, there's a lot
for you to read in this issue. We hope you enjoy it.

Brad ,

 Just wanted to say thanks for all the hard work you do to publish
this newsletter to all of us die hard Amiga Fans, I am truly sorry to
hear what Gateway has done to this fine machine. I just wonder what
the cutoff point for that company was, all that money, time and effort
just to throw it away when they were close to releasing the next OS ,
and all the other interesting B.S info they leaked to the press.

 But as Any Modern Day Technical Guru , I own Amigas , Mac's and PC's
, I use all the Operating Systems, Linux 6x , BeOS ,Amiga OS ,
winblows 95/98/nt/2k whatever, I try not to bash each OS for what it
Cant do, just appreciate all that they can do... But I will never Ever
Buy anything gateway again for what they have done...

Iceman.
~~~~~~
Iceman,
 A lot of us have tried to figure out what Gateway was trying to
accomplish and how things ended up as they did. I personally believe
it was a combination of loss of nerve in the face of Microsoft, and
internal Gateway corporate politics. Sad to say but many far reaching
decisions have been made with even less reasoning. The bottom line is
simply - will the company stay profitable?
 As you, I will not buy anything Gateway made at this point. Thanks
for the kind words!
 Regards,
 Brad

Hi Brad
    I have appreciated this resource of amiga news, please keep up the
excellent work. But, I have a question about one of the statements you made
a couple of months ago. It was in response to another readers letter and
concerned other attempts to revive the amiga other than the official Amiga
company. You stated that you didn't think that it was appropriate for this
news-letter to cover the other attempts to revive the Amiga such as the
A.R.P. or the work at QNX. Why not? Doesn't this put all your eggs into one
basket? And also is this the only feasible way that the best solution to
reviving the Amiga will be attained?

Thanks - Jim
~~~~~~
Jim,
 First, my apologies for shortening your letter, but space
considerations made that necessary.
 You ask a very good question. What I had to do to your letter points
to the answer - we just don't have the space to cover all the
permutations out there. We also don't have the staff or the time. I
wish we did. What we will do is cover the Amiga itself, whatever that
might be going forward, until such time as it seems appropriate to
drop the Amiga entirely in favor of something else - if that ever
happens. (If we do get to that point, we'll share the decision with
you, the readers.)
 We will also cover whatever looks to us to be the leading efforts in
the "alternative Amigas" field. And finally, we will also cover to
some extent significant events in all Amiga related areas, where these
events seem to have some real promise for the Amiga community. This is
a pretty complicated mission statement, but we've actually been doing
this for some time and it seems to be working. I have no doubt we
could miss something significant along the way but we'll try to avoid
that. If we do, I'm pretty sure some readers will call our attention
to the event, and we'll then try to get the word to the rest.
 Regards,
 Brad

 While in St Louis last March conversing with Petro, it was stated by
him that, "the shipment of containers from Quikpak of the remaining
parts had been received and inspected. It contained less than 2 dozen
usable 4000 motherboards." Now this was casual conversation between 4
of us, but I have no reason to doubt it's truthfullness. Petro did
make it possible for me to launch the CDTV 3.1 upgrade project, and
that was all verbal between him and me in March of 98.

Ben Deemer "thedoctor" not MD.
~~~~~~
Ben,
 Thanks for answering Mike's question from a previous issue.
 It's very disappointing there weren't more resources available for
making A4000s - I suspect Amiga could still sell quite a few.
 Regards,
 Brad

    There used to be a document on the Amiga Inc. web page
concerning Y2K issues with the Amiga.  I haven't been there in quite a
while, so I don't know if it's still there.  If it's not still there,
I'm sure there are plenty who know all the gritty details.  But...
    As far as I can remember, Workbench will have no trouble, but
AmigaDOS itself doesn't handle four digit dates.  You might get
invalid date stamps on files.  Hopefully the guys at H&P have
addressed this in OS 3.5 or working on it for 3.6(?).
 As for the RTC {Real Time Clock, we presume. Brad}, that's another
issue. As I recall, the document stated that the RTC found in the
A2000 is not Y2K compliant. The only possible fix is a software patch
to the OS.

Carlos
~~~~~~
Carlos,
 The Y2k page is still available at amiga.com, and has a link right
off the first page after the home page. Anyone with Y2K questions
should refer to that document for information. We didn't notice
anything in particular about the A2000, but the different versions of
the operating system, the clocks, etc., have different considerations.
 Thanks for your help in answering a reader's question.
 Regards,
 Brad

 Centsible Software has just recently bought out Paxtron. Right now,
they are in the midst of moving all the inventory from New Jersey to
Berrien Springs, Michigan. It should take about 2-3 weeks to get it
all sorted, catalogued counted, etc. After that, things should be back
in full swing from the new location.

 In the meantime, if you have any queries or parts needs, you can
Email Scott (the owner of Centsible Software) at support@centsible.com
{Note: since obtaining this information, we have been informed
"Paxtron" has dropped all Amiga support. We have not yet confirmed
this. Brad}

 On October 20, CNET News ran a story by Jim Davis and Michael
Kanellos detailing an agreement reached by Gateway and America On
Line.
 The deal will bring an $800 investment in Gateway from AOL. AOL
becomes the Internet service for Gateway customers, and the backbone
of Gateway.net.
 The following quote from the story should be of interest to Amigans:

 " Many observers have speculated that hardware companies will have to
hook up with service providers to make money on appliances. Under the
new alliance, Gateway will begin to market devices for the "AOL
Anywhere" strategy.

 'There's clearly a possibility that Amiga will play a part in this
marketplace,'" according to Jeff Weitzen, chief operating officer of
Gateway.

     AmigaOS 3.5 is available !!!

 The delivery of AmigaOS 3.5 started punctual. The first packages were
sold at an Amiga show in The Netherlands last weekend. Delivery of all
orders might last about 1-2 weeks. The areas for registrations and
support will be opened in a few days.

The long version

 Today is there pretty much Amiga software and there is new software
coming but it takes long time and it might result in lots of bugs. We
started to discus whatever there was a way that we could do something
about that problem and after some long hours we found the answer in
TAVP. Now we are in a early stage and we need your support because
that is what this project feeds on. Right now we are contacting all
kinds of Amiga developers about if and what area they need help. We
need people that are prepared to work for no pay but only for the good
will and you dont have to be an expert in whatever you do. We want
everything, coders, musicians and so on because there is always
someone that needs that. We are also contacting different PC
developers about ports to the Amiga that we can sell so the project
might get some money(no of the founders will get any money)that might
be used to different things.

 We as mentioned before that this project depends your support and we
hope that as many of you skilled persons out there will join us.

 The short version

 What is TAVP(The Amiga Volunteer Project)?

 The TAVP is an non profit project that will support the development
of new software to Amiga. What you have think of before you join is
that you will not be paid because as mentioned before is this an NON
PROFIT organisation.

 Why do we do it?

 We are all long time Amiga users and decided that now was the time
for us to active support the Amiga. At the moment there is pretty much
software but the development takes long time but if this project works
it will maybe speed up the development a bit.

 How will we do it?

 to make this project come true we need you. We need skilled amigians
in any directions and you dont have too be the best coder in the world
you only have to be pretty good. If you are interested go to the join
section and fill out the form and we will contact you or send a mail
to denebis@algonet.se.

 What will we do?

 As mentioned before we will support the Amiga market by helping
different developers with skilled people but that is not the only
thing that we will do. We will also try to convert PC software to the
Amiga.

Hello Amiga fans,

 Just to let you know two items about Amiga 2K, the latest Gateway
Computer Show hosted in St. Louis by Amigan-St. Louis. {Note to
non-Americans: NOT Gateway the company. Gateway in this case comes
originally from St. Louis as "the gateway to the American West" and
later the Gateway Computer Club of St. Louis. Brad}

 1. The show dates are Saturday April 1 & Sunday April 2, 2000.
 (If you didn't hear, we changed them due to a conflict with NAB.
 That's the National Association of Broadcasters show, also in
 April.)

 2. Petro Tyschtschenko has agreed to attend our show. Petro said
 he wouldn't miss a show that we put on.

 Please visit our web site at: http://www.amiga-stl.com for more
information as it becomes available.

 If you wish to exhibit, please fill out the exhibitor form. We are
accepting exhibitors now. If you cannot do this, or you have a
question, then please email me at bscharp@icon-stl.net.

Best Regards,
Bob Scharp

 Robert Jant, chief of a group of former Iwin employees, has announced
today that he together with other former Iwin employees and with the
help of a large German bank has bought back the rights for the
Internet domains www.iwin-corp.com and www.iwin-corp.ge, furthermore
the rights for the name Iwin Corporation and for the projects of the
C-Series and Server computers.
 "It was a logical decision" said Robert Jant. "Focke Systems didn't
want to continue development of the C-Series and Servers and didn't
want to sell them either.
 "This is the reason why we have decided to try to buy back the rights
on them. We were working very hard for a long time on these projects
and didn't want to see them frozen. We know that it will be a very
hard way to finish the projects and bring them into the stores.
 We won't bring these computers into the stores as it was initially
planned, but we are sure they will be successful."
 Iwin Corporation will open again on the 15 of November 1999 and will
also ship the first computers on this date to dealers. On the 15 of
November, Iwin Corporation will also again be reachable by phone, fax
and email.
 {Since this press release was issued, Iwin sites are indeed back in
operation. The computers now include something called the G-MCC, I-MCC
 and iPhantom computers all of which reference Amiga compatibility. It
is unclear what the Amiga compatibility actually is - it appears to be
some sort of software emulation, perhaps UAE. Brad}

 Iwin Corporation has been split into three independent firms.

 1. The Software business was sold to ``Focke Systems'' and will now
    be fully integrated into this firm.

 2. The Consulting business was also sold to ``Focke Systems'' and
     will be ``Focke Consulting'' in the future.

 3. The Hardware business was first also sold to ``Focke Systems'' but
    then bought back by some former Iwin employees. This firm will now be
    called ``Iwin Corporation''. This website will be the future site of
    this firm. The new firm will start business on the 15th of November
    1999 and will sell various graphic workstations based on x86 and PPC
    technology as well as server computers.

 For all people asking about the announced ``Amiga compatible''
 computers, please use these contact possibilities in the meanwhile:

 Either by FAX in the US: (208)-279-6497. Your question will be
 answerred within two work days. Please understand that currently we
 cannot answer any questions by email or phone. On the 15th of November
 this site will have changed to the new Iwin site and will contain a
 toll-free (US and Germany only!) number for your questions regarding
 the Amiga compatible workstations and all other hardware products.

 If you need help or sales support for former Iwin software products,
 please refer to Focke Systems.

About Us

 The Campaign to Open Source AmigaOS is a coalition of individuals,
organisations and user groups from the Amiga, Open Source and Linux
communities. The Campaign to Open Source AmigaOS was formed on the 4th
October to bring together these usually unrelated groups for a common
cause: to present our case to Amiga, Inc. for open sourcing the Amiga
operating system.

Open Letter to Amiga, Inc. President Thomas Schmidt

October 18, 1999

Dear Mr. Schmidt:

 First of all, we want to congratulate you on your new position as
president of Amiga. We are sure that you have many exciting plans for
the future of Amiga, Inc. and that we can expect many new innovations
from your company in the months and years ahead. This is indeed an
exciting time for the computer industry, a time of great upheaval and
change, and holds much promise for the success and growth of ambitious
upstart companies like Amiga, Inc.

 We have been following the recent events at Amiga, Inc. with great
interest. We feel, like many, that the recent resignation of Jim
Collas was unfortunate. Many people in the community trusted Collas to
successfully lead the company into the future. Wherever he is now, and
whatever he is doing, we in the community wish him well.

 But this is not a time to be looking back on events of the past. It
is a time to be focusing on what lies directly ahead in the future of
the computing industry. We feel our organisation is unique in the
Amiga community. We have tried to understand both the needs of the
Amiga community, balanced against the needs of Amiga, Inc.

 We do not believe, like some in the community, that the wishes of the
Amiga community and the needs of Amiga, Inc. are mutually exclusive.

 Likewise, we do not believe that success of Amiga, Inc. as a company
is mutually exclusive with satisfying the needs and expectations of
the Amiga community.

 Our group was formed with a simple goal: to find a
mutually-satisfactory solution to current tensions that exist between
many in the community and Amiga, Inc. - a solution that would be
satisfactory, indeed beneficial, to both groups.

 We believe, after several weeks of discussion and exchanging of
ideas, that we have found such a solution. We believe that this
solution is to open-source the Amiga operating system.

 We present our reasons for believing this in our report, "AmigaOS:
The Case for Open Source," a copy of which should have been sent to
you alongside this letter, by Amiga Vice President Mr. Petro
Tyschtschenko.

 Our report is the result of several weeks of work and consultation
with many individuals in the Amiga, Open Source and Linux communities,
including famous open-source advocate Eric Raymond, who acted as a
consultant for Netscape on their open-source strategy.

 We believe our report presents a powerful case that open-sourcing the
Amiga operating system would bring many advantages, and future
business opportunities, to Amiga, Inc. and would at the same time
satisfy the needs of the Amiga community for continuity and continuous
improvement of the Amiga operating system.

 We therefore respectfully submit our report, "AmigaOS: The Case for
Open Source," for your review and consideration.

 We, of course, do not expect the report to fully and complete answer
each and every question you may have on the subject of open-source, or
why we believe it is the ideal solution to the current volatile Amiga
situation - but we do, however, believe it is a good start, and we
hope that you will be made curious enough by the contents of the
report, to establish a dialogue with us on the matter, and to consider
working with us in an attempt to find a mutually satisfactory solution
to the current Amiga situation. Your nomination to president of a
young, ambitious, innovative upstart company like Amiga, Inc. could
not have come at a better time. The next several months and years will
be an exciting time to be a player in the ever-changing fast-paced
computing industry.

 Whatever direction Amiga takes, we wish you and Amiga, Inc. every
success in the future.

 We look forward to your response.

 Respectfully,

Steve Crietzman (president@savetheamiga.org.uk)
President, Campaign to Open Source AmigaOS

 "News from Project IMP - the Independent Multimedia Platform

 We have now our own webserver: www.project-imp.org, or for german
visitors www.project-imp.de. The website had been completely
redesigned and you will find there lots of new information about the
project. Most important news are our support for the Campaign To Open
Source The AmigaOS (www.savetheamiga.org.uk) and AROS (www.aros.org).

 About Project IMP: Project IMP had been founded just after Jim Collas
left Amiga and the AmigaMCC had been canceled. It is our intention to
keep the Amiga platform alive and give it a future. This goal can only
be reached by making the operating system and the hardware open
source. Without getting the rights at Amiga to do so, we have to write
our own, free OS which will be as much as possible compatible to the
existing AmigaOS as a basing for further developments.

 We will support any group or project that is working in that
direction in order to organize and bundle all developments. If you
have further quistions, just mail to me: postmaster@project-imp.org

Sincerely,
Volker Mohr
Initiator of Project IMP

Waldshut-Tiengen, Germany 19. October 1999 :

 OPEN OFFER FROM GTI GRENVILLE TRADING INTERNATIONAL GMBH, SPECIALISED
INTERNATIONAL DISTRIBUTOR OF AMIGA PRODUCTS

 GTI Grenville Trading International GmbH, the German-based
international distributor of Amiga products today made an open offer
to those manufacturers of Amiga products looking for increased sales
worldwide.

 OFFER TO MANUFACTURERS OF AMIGA PRODUCTS LOOKING FOR INCREASED
INTERNATIONAL SALES

 GTI Grenville Trading International GmbH distributes Amiga products
(main emphasis - software) to Amiga re-sellers on an international
basis. Our customers are based throughout Europe, and in North America
and Australasia. With 12 years of experience in the Amiga market, and
having built up a ongoing network of clients on a wholesale-only basis
(we do not sell to end-users) over the last five years, GTI Grenville
Trading International GmbH is in a unique position to ensure
availability of Amiga products to Amiga businesses in many countries.
Currently well over 250 Amiga products are listed and distributed by
GTI Grenville Trading International GmbH.

 As the market decline of the Amiga has continued, dealers have found
it increasingly difficult to source and stock Amiga products.
Manufacturers have found it well nigh impossible to supply the
thinly-spread network of Amiga dealers with product.

 GTI Grenville Trading International GmbH now makes the following
offer to manufacturers of Amiga products worldwide.

 We will stock your Amiga products on a turnkey basis ! This basically
means that we are prepared to list and sell Amiga products on your
behalf to our network of Amiga dealers on an international basis.
Under this scheme, we are willing to price products according to
manufacturers preferences, and remit proceeds of sales minus an agreed
commission fee back to manufacturers on a regular basis.

 We offer producers the possibility of reaching a large number of
Amiga dealers with the minimum of paperwork and fuss. We are happy to
list Amiga products and sell on your behalf without ANY minimum
quantity - thus enabling even specialised products to obtain an
international listing and succeed by their own quality. This scheme is
particularly suited to North American manufacturers looking for
increased sales of their products to the European Amiga trade and
thereby to European Amiga users.

 Additionally we are able to offer support to those manufacturers
offering their products directly to end-users through the internet.
Our logistics facility offers a centralised European warehousing for
your products, and delivery to end-users on your behalf throughout
Europe. We are also able to supply invoicing, cash-collection,
marketing, and translation services as and when required. This scheme
is particularly suited to North American manufacturers looking for
increased sales of their products through E-Commerce to end-users
throughout Europe.

 We would like to invite producers of Amiga products looking for
increased product sales to take advantage of one or both of the above
schemes and contact us with a view to expanding their market presence
on an international basis.

Hi Amiga-Fans!

 Here are some news about recent changes on the GAUHPIL, the
"Geographical Amiga Users Home Page Internet List", which holds
currently more than 850 homepages of Amiga users!

 The GAUHPIL has moved again. Now it is free of any commercial banners
- at the 7th URL!!!

 The redirector-URL is still valid. You should never have problems to
find the GAUHPIL at:

 http://GAUHPIL.home.pages.de/

 During the last months, I did some checking and changing. I found the
first ever Amiga user in Antarctica! And now I added the 35th country:
Philippines! Some names are new on the list, some others disappeared.
You find some of the latter on the Lost Links List.

 There is also one totally new page: the New Links List, which shows
recently added/changed names on the GAUHPIL.

 If you didn't visit the GAUHPIL in the recent time, you might be
interested in the References List and the Related Sites page.

 Please note, that my e-mail address has also slightly changed. Please
update your addressbooks now, to the following address:

 dknoll@myokay.net

 Thanks a lot for all your suggestions, comments and hints in all
those years!

 Special thanks to those of you that linked the GAUHPIL on your site.
You are listed on the "Hall of Fame" (see: References & Banners page)

Opus Magellan 5.82 with OS 3.5 Support to be Shown at Cologne

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

 GPSoftware is proud to demonstrate its continuing support for the
Amiga with the release of a new version of Directory Opus Magellan
which supports the new palette mapped icon system of OS 3.5.

 The product will be demonstrated on the Schatztruhe stand at the
Cologne show, November 12-14th November 1999 by Dr Greg Perry.

 Opus Magellan is available world-wide from good Amiga dealers and
GPSoftware distributors. Or you may support the developers by
purchasing direct.

 Free Update Patch available.

 OS 3.5 causes some superficial problems with earlier versions of Opus
because of the new palette mapped icon system which is not
transparently compatibility with earlier programs. With the help of
Olaf Barthel, we have now added support for the new V44 icon library
in OS 3.5.

 A free update patch from Opus 5.81 is available from our web site at

 November 1, 1999

 Here's an update on what has been happening since we made the
announcement to release the QNX development system to Amigans:

 How is the Phase 5/QNX alliance proceeding?

 We are currently waiting for boards from Phase 5. Due to the delay we
don't expect to have a Phase 5 solution this year. We will continue to
provide status updates as we know more.

 How will the beta program be handled?

 Historically, we have always had small beta programs because it
allows us to spend more time with each beta developer to better
address their issues and suggestions. We plan to do the same with this
upcoming beta. We will expand the group quickly as we progress.

 The first beta release for the initial smaller group is planned for
early November. This beta will be a full-featured self-hosted
development environment. Over the ensuing months, we will be updating
the betas with more tools, drivers, and applications.

 What will the beta development package include?

 Our first beta is targeted at x86-based computers.

 The beta will contain:

 o QNX Neutrino operating system, including tools and drivers.
 o Photon microGUI windowing system, including a suite of
applications, drivers, and development tools
 o x86-hosted development environment for x86 targets (compiler will
be GCC with GBD for debugging)
 o Online documentation

 Version 2.0, November 16th 1999:

* version bump due to large improvements.

* first Draco Altais support.

 o *NEW FEATURE*: added functionality to patch the most common native
 Amiga chipset screen modes to use a Picasso96 board to ease use
 and installation of Picasso96 on systems that don't have a native
 Amiga chipset (like the Macrosystem Draco) or that have no monitor
 attached to the native chip set signal connector or that don't
 have a flicker fixer and no 15 kHz capable monitor. To enable
 this feature add the tool type "FakeNativeModes=Yes" to the
 monitor driver of one of your cards (defaults to "Yes" with the
 Draco Altais and "No" for all other cards) and remove all native
 Amiga monitor drivers (!). Now, when the system uses one of the
 native Amiga screen modes (currently only LowRes, HighRes and
 SuperHighRes and their interlaced counter parts), a 640x480 31kHz
 60Hz screen mode on the graphics card will be used. Note: this
 mode is not configurable and it is not intended to be, because
 you should use real Picasso96 screen mode IDs whenever you can.
 Its only intention is to get the workbench on a VGA compatible
 screen when the current screenmode.prefs contains an invalid mode
 id. May also be useful for some (stupid) programs that default to
 a custom screen with a native Amiga screen mode after
 installation.


 o *NEW FEATURE*: software sprite routines will use on-board blitter
 when available. Therefore boards which have a blitter reserve
 about 12 KB of their memory for sprite and back buffers. This
 might affect the size of the largest screen that can be opened in
 some systems (mostly with 1MB cards).

 o *NEW FEATURE*: alerts (Alert(), DisplayAlert(),
 TimedDisplayAlert()) now are rendered into the front most screen
 if it is a Picasso96 one. After termination of the alert, the
 display is restored.

 o *NEW FEATURE*: board drivers can now prevent the loading and
 attaching of settings files. Useful for the UAEgfx driver that
 creates its own modes and cannot use standard settings
 definitions at all.

 o *NEW FEATURE*: new environment variable "DisableAmigaBlitter"
 which even forces blits on standard planar Amiga bitmaps to be
 performed by the CPU. Set to 'yes' to enable this feature. If you
 don't use native Amiga screens, this could improve some operations
 on fast processors. On the other hand, Amiga screens will be
 slower. Defaults to 'No'.

 o *NEW FEATURE*: new environment variable "PlanesToFast" which when
 set to 'Yes' will allocate planar bitplanes to fast memory except
 when the caller requested a visible or standard bitmap. Defaults
 to 'No'.


 o *NEW FEATURE* user can now allocate private bitmaps that do not
 need to be locked. Especially useful for programs that need
 temporary fast memory bitmaps for rendering.

                            Unity Overview

Abstract:

 Unity alias Zorro1200 is an Autoconfig(TM) board for Amiga. It makes
it possible to use Melody1200 and other expansions initially done for
A1200's clock port for ZorroII/III Computers.

 A special property is variable bus speed. It's possible to run
expansions nearly as slow as in A1200 but it's even possible to go up
to twice that speed known from old Zorro boards like Melody-Z2 or
Prelude.

 Why it's a must have:

 Unity together with:

 o Unity-Net 10 results in an efficient, small low-priced 10Base-2 or
10Base-T solution for Amiga different to other solutions Full
Duplex-Mode (20Mbps) is supported.

 o Unity-Net 100 probably is the first and only 10/100BaseTx solution
for Amiga. It's unique!

 o Melody1200 gives the final move for Melody 1200. being the market
leader regarding audio precission + bandwidth inside every Amiga. Load
is much lower compared to the traditional clock-port connection at
A1200. This even means there is room for a Multichannel variant
Melody1200. Do you want ous to do such solution? Tell ous!

 o Twister1200 primary results in higher throughput. The mayor topic
is having a real Serial High-End Interface at Zorro-Amiga by not
wasting a Zorro slot (since there is the possibility of having an
on-board interface that option should be taken first loosing no
connector). If there is anybody out there who likes to have three very
fast serial interfaces this is possible now.

 o combinations of these and future boards gives maximum flexibility
by using only one Zorro slot

 Features:

 o Zorro2 Autoconfig(TM)
 o Up to 3.5 MB/s bus bandwidth to CPU causing low system load, only
 o two connectors for Melody1200, Twister1200 and other boards
 o 16bits connector intended for Networkoption Unity-Net 10 or 100.

Board is prepared (production time) for mounting further devices:

 o Twister1200-style HighSpeed Serial Interface Onboard
 o xxxx Interface Onboard (secret up to the show;-)

 Requirements:

 o Amiga mit Zorro Slot
 o oder Amiga 1200 mit Bus-Erweiterung

 Status:

 o very early prototype was presented at Computer'98, Cologne
 o final design presented at Home Electronics World in Cologne 1999

You wanted it here it is.

 Mikro Mortal Tennis aims to become the craziest game ever in the
videogame history!! As you can guess from the title, it is basically
founded on tennis game, but its goal is to eliminate your opponents,
not simply to defeat them!!!

 To this purpose, players might make use of loads of Mortal-Kombat and
Street-Fighter-like special moves, in addition to many others,
directly taken from lots of famous videogames or films. Besides, there
are bombs, Fire'n'forget rockets, heat-seeking missiles at their
complete disposal... The game boasts an amusing animated intro which
will explain the reason of such a strange tournamnet - by the way,
your order is to climb a high mountain, just like the second episode
of the Mortal Kombat saga; moreover, it features several victory and
defeat pictures and an even more crazy final sequence than the intro!!

 Players can choose their characters from a range of twelve different
guys, each distinguished with typical characteristics, which can be
edited in the proper menu. Beyond every human conceiving, the game is
spangled with lots of mad things, like referee-slaughtering, animals
which will appear in the field, VIPs which will perform during the
match, and a mysterious tapir named Fart (main character of the game,
as you can be able to guess from the introduction) which will perform
in a number of funny anims.. At the beginning of the match the players
will enter the field and choose the field in which play with an
incredible money trowing!! Of course, the sporting side of the game is
not to be under-stimated.. You'll always have to win your match!! From
this point of view, the game is classicaly structured: pitch type,
number of sets to win, type of game (single, double or training),as
well as the type of tournament to join; you'll be able to select, in
addition to the above-mentioned MK-style tournament, an UNFRIENDLY
tournament in which up to eight human players are allowed to take
part, or a full season, where player will have to win as much as
possible to travel all over the world, and in order to buy weapons and
points which will help him in his short career. It's possible to save
and subsequently restore your season from disc as well as every change
made in the players editing menu, where you're able to change the
name, the characteristics and the shirt colour of all the
characters...

 Well, that's all, there's nothing left but wishing you to enjoy Mikro
Mortal Tennis! Mikro Mortal Tennis supports all Amiga models with at
least 1 Meg of Ram.

 Mikro Mortal Tennis authors are:
 Coding: Davide Mancusi - Marco Pacifico
 Graphics: Marco Pacifico - Sergio Rocco
 Additional graphics: Enrico Zerbo
 Musics & sfx: Alex Ascione
 Storyboard: Valerio Massari - Stefano Gualeni

The game is expeceted to retail around the 15 ukp mark.
