Press Release

DATE:       09-Sep-99
TOPIC:      NL-editing system for Amiga and DraCo
CONTACT:    info@audiolabs.it


AudioLabs (http://www.audiolabs.it) is proud to announce ProStationAudio,
the ultimate NL-editing software for AmigaOS-based systems.

Featuring   timeline  visual   editing,  region-based  audio  management,
realtime  DSP effects,  faders automation, studio-quality digital mixing,
ProStationAudio  is  the  largest  audio  project in development for the
AmigaOS.

ProStationAudio v2 Demo is available for downloading at the AudioLabs web
sites. North America residents can take advantage of the local web server
at http://usa.audiolabs.it for faster downloads.



[FEATURES]

- Import/export audio from/to any platform. Exchange audio files with
  industry standard platforms including Windows, MacOS, Unix or
  dedicated hardware (DraCo, NewTek Toaster/Flyer, AD516/Studio16).

- Internet friendly: MPEG layer 1, 2 and 3 (the popular MP3) import,
  Java ulaw import/export. Import multiple MP3 files, overlap them
  on the timeline to create automatic crossfades, add realtime effects
  such as EQ and stereo field expansion, then master to CDDA, all with
  ProStationAudio.

- Hard-disk based non linear editing. Work with audio recordings up to
  2GB each, regardless the amount of RAM memory installed. Disk streaming.
  Instant random access to any location.

- Non destructive editing. Trim, cut, fade, crossfade audio recordings
  without affecting the original takes. Instantaneous operations
  regardless the file size.

- Region-based editing. Any fragment of audio is accessible from an
  alpha-sorted list, managed by the application. Any fragment generated
  by cutting, bouncing, recording, gets automatically named and sorted.
  Let ProStationAudio take care of your most complex projects.

- Visual approach. Build your projects managing visual audio blocks.
  Examine on-screen waveforms to create perfect edits. Each block can
  be distorted manually to create fades and trim its boundaries. Blocks
  can be dropped over blocks to create crossfades (or to have them
  automatically align in various ways). Multilayer graphics: objects,
  waveforms, fades/xfades, automation.

- Extensive set of tools for positioning and aligning objects, ranges
  and the cursor. Accurate spotting to SMPTE locations, at sub-frame
  resolution. Tools for DJs such as shifting and scaling ranges. The
  intelligent Magic Wand tool lets you create perfect loops in a
  fraction of a second, automatically.

- Automotion (tm), the automation engine. Create the perfect mix while
  letting the software remember all of your moves. Automation tracks
  can be graphically edited in the timeline window or recorded in
  realtime by grabbing the faders during playback.

- Realtime design. Operate on faders, pans, effects parameters, even
  the virtual tape speed, always in realtime, to tune up your mix on
  the fly or create dynamics effects. These dynamic effects can
  optionally be recorded to disk, again in realtime, while playing.

- Advanced auditioning. Fast-forward and slow-motion during playback.
  Realtime time stretching. The auditioning signal can be digitally
  recorded to disk in realtime.

- ALPS architecture for audio DSP plugins: unlimited expansion
  possibilities. Multiple DSP inserts allow to apply different DSP
  effects to each track, in realtime. Multiple master DSP inserts
  (post-fader processing).

- ALPS plugins: freely accessible modules for realtime DSP operations.
  Downloadable from the web site. Include dynamic compression,
  several EQ modules, spatial processing, ducking, delays, ...
  http://www.audiolabs.it/plugins

- Hi-end hardware support: ProStationAudio takes advantage of 1 or 2
  CPUs, 1 or 2 video monitors, 1 or 2 graphic cards.  Add value to
  your hardware investments.

- Hi-quality graphic interface, scalable, font-sensitive, supporting
  up to 1600x1280 on two different monitors. Shaded look, includes
  gadgetry (pots, switches,...) scanned from real gear. Supports also
  a dual screen display on a single monitor.

Subject:      Iwin

Hallo Petra

Da ich einer der Betatester von Iwin bin, teile ich dir hiermit
offiziell mit, daß die ersten Teile der von der Firma Iwin
angekündigten Materialien angekommen sind, und zwar zu 100% wie
angekündigt.

Erwarte noch in dieser Woche die restlichen Teile aus USA, sie sind
wohl schon beim Zoll eingegangen.

Dies habe ich bereits auch in d.c.s.a.m gepostet.

Bis denn ...

Mit freundlichem Gruss

Dear Mrs. Struck,

Below is a link to some pictures we received from Martin Steinbach. They
were taken yesterday at the Iwin premises.

http://www.compcity.nl/amiga/iwin.htm

We doubted Iwin very much and at first we didn't mean to enter the
discussion. But now we have received more information from Mr. Steinbach and
customers even want to pre-order. Therefor we want to share our findings.
Since there has been a lively discussion on c.s.a.m. about Iwin being real
or not, I think most people would like to take a look at these.

Now a lot has been said about Iwin, and not many of it was positive. What I
wonder is how everyone would have reacted some years ago however, before all
the disappointments of promised Amigas that never appeared.

Of course, one could set up a hoax as big as this and go through all the
trouble and costs of making it believable. We tend to think this one is for
real, however.

If we are wrong we'll just have to compliment Iwin with obtaining such
believability. But if we're right the Iwin C-series might just be what a lot
of people are waiting for.

Yours,
Ron van Herk,

Dear Mr. van Herk,

thank you for sharing your information. However, pictures of some office
building, taken by Mr. Steinbach himself, are of little value as proof
for the credibility of Iwin. So far, Iwin presented webpages, claims,
mails, and photos that could have been taken anywhere around the world.
As long as there are no products available from Iwin, we will doubt
their credibitlity.

This doesn't mean we won't be excited to see Iwin's claims to come true.
It's just that they have been presented in such an unlikely manner that
we still are in doubt.

So far, we have not recieved positive confirmation about Iwin's credi-
bility from someone we trust. Until this happens, our position towards
Iwin will not change.

Best Regards
Petra Struck

in deutsch:
danke, daß Sie Ihre Informationen geteilt haben. Allerdings sind Bilder
irgendeines Bürogebäudes, aufgenommen von Mr. Steinbach selbst, als
Beweis für die Glaubwürdigkeit von Iwin von geringem Wert. So lange es
keine verfügbaren Produkte von Iwin gibt, werden wir deren Glaubwürdig-
keit anzweifeln.

Das soll nicht heißen, daß wir nicht aufgeregt wären, sollten Iwins
Behauptungen Wahrheit werden. Es ist nur so, daß sie in derart
unwahrscheinlicher Weise präsentiert wurden, daß wir an ihnen zweifeln
müssen.

Bis jetzt haben wir keine Bestätigung von Iwin's Glaubwürdigkeit von
jemandem erhalten, dem wir vertrauen. Bis dies geschieht, wird sich
unsere Haltung gegenüber Iwin nicht ändern.

Voller Name: Holger Meier


Liebe Amiga-Gemeinde,

da es jetzt ja mittlerweile überall die Runde macht, möchte ich folgendes
Vorabstatement abgeben:

a) Die AMIGAspecial wird als Printmagazin vorerst auf Eis gelegt. Die
   kommende Ausgabe wird somit nicht erscheinen.

b) ... das bedeutet aber nicht, daß es niemals mehr eine Ausgabe der
   AMIGAspecial geben wird. (!)

c) Unser Online-Angebot wird ausgebaut. Da ich dort u. a. (aus eigenem
   Engagement) Redaktion unterbringen möchte, suche ich noch "ehrenamtliche"
   Redakteure bzw. Online-Magazine, die mit mir zusammenarbeiten möchten.

d) Ein offizielles (und ehrliches) Statement (...wieso, weshalb warum...)
   habe ich bereits fertiggestellt und wird voraussichtlich noch in dieser
   Woche auf unserer Homepage zu finden sein. Zuvor muß ich es jedoch der
   Geschäftsführung vorlegen.

e) Bitte bombardien Sie mich nicht mit eMails. Wir werden weitere Infos
   bekanntgeben. Alle Formalitäten (z. B. Abos etc.) werden in jedem Fall
   geklärt.

Bitte haben Sie etwas Geduld bis zum endgültigen Statement.

Holger Meier

              - Aktion gegen Markengrabbing
Reply-to:     info@markengrabbing.de

Halli Hallo!

Nach längerer Zeit nun endlich wieder einmal ein Update über die
"Aktion gegen Markengrabbing" ...

... auch in der vergangenen Woche hat sich wieder einmal Einiges
getan. All' das zeigt mir, wie wichtig es ist, daß diese Aktion
weiterhin bestehen bleibt und von euch allen stark unterstützt wird,
denn weder die Abmahnwelle im Falle "webspace" scheint vorbei
zu sein, noch finden die seltsamen Markeneinträge ein Ende!

*** FvG und die WUAG ***
Wie ja bereits beschrieben, hat die What's Up AG einen
kostenlosen Lizenzvertrag für deren Marke "webspace" angeboten.
Hierauf hatte ich auf unseren Seiten einige Bedenken vorgetragen.
Nun meint unser "guter" FvG diese Bedenken gegen die What's Up
AG ausnutzen zu können, indem er Zitate mindestens in dem
Forum von Freedom For Links postet ...

Mehr:
http://www.markengrabbing.de/news.htm
Meine Bedenken:
http://www.markengrabbing.de/wuag_lizenz.htm
Mein Kommentar zu FvG's Versuch:
http://www.markengrabbing.de/kommentar.htm


*** Fangprämien für Markenverletzer? ***
Gibt es so etwas wie Fangprämien für Markenverletzer? Lt.
Informationen von Freedom For Links scheint sich zumindestens
eine Person hierauf spezialisiert zu haben und dann die
angeblichen Markenverletzer an Rechtsanwälte zu melden ...
http://www.markengrabbing.de/news.htm


*** "www" und "FvG" nun als Wortmarke eingetragen ***
Auch die Begriffe "www" und "FvG" scheinen nun als Wortmarke
für die Schutzklasse 42 eingetragen zu sein. Genaueres versuchen
wir gerade bei dem Markeninhaber herauszufinden ...
http://www.markengrabbing.de/news.htm


*** GIF-Bilder nur noch mit Lizenz? ***
Lt. verschiedenen Quellen, könnte unisys demnächst an etliche
Website-Manager herantreten und für die Benutzung von GIF-
Bildern (nach LZW-Komprimierung) Lizenzgebühren verlangen ...
http://www.markengrabbing.de/news.htm


*** Weitere Abmahnungen ***
Auch mit dem Ende des Augustes scheint die Abmahnwelle im
Fall "webspace" noch lange nicht vorüber zu sein. So erreichte uns
auch in den letzten Tagen wieder eine Email, daß ein Provider
abgemahnt wurde ... wann endlich hat dies ein Ende?


*** Mithilfe gefragt ***
Nachdem sich etliche von euch in unserer Abstimmung dafür
ausgesprochen haben, daß Hintergrundinformationen ebenfalls
stärker präsentiert werden mögen, rufe ich euch zu aktiver Mitarbeit
auf. Wer von euch hat gute Ideen, was wir anbieten können, wer
kann und möchte vielleicht einen Artikel oder Informationen
zusammenstellen, den wir dann veröffentlichen können etc.?
Bitte meldet euch einfach bei mir unter:
info@markengrabbing.de

Ach ja, die Abstimmung könnt ihr von jeder Seite aus mitmachen.
Im rechten Menü findet ihr die Abstimmungpunkte :-)


So, nun wünsche ich euch einen guten Start in die kommende
Woche ... und rufe euch wieder einmal auf, unsere Aktion tatkräftig
zu unterstützen. Wer noch Ideen und Anregungen, Tips,
Informationen etc. hat, melde sich bitte bei mir, damit wir dies alles
in die Aktion einbauen können.

Auch seid ihr alle wieder und wieder dazu aufgerufen, unsere
Aktion aktiv zu unterstützen indem ihr Freunden, Bekannten,
Kollegen, Chefs etc. von unserer Aktion erzählt und diese aufruft,
uns zu unterstützen... Vielen Dank !!!!!!!!!!!

Also, bis später
Euer
Thorsten Hassiepen

THE  FAST ATA-2/EIDE CONTROLLER

In recent times, the extremely dynamic progress in the mass production
technology of data storage media has resulted in a huge increase
of their capacity and speed. It is especially apparent in the devices
which make use of the FAST ATA-2/EIDE standard of communication with
computers.
Enhanced IDE is at present the most common controller standard for
hard drives, CD-ROM drives, CD-RW drives, DVD drives, etc.

The Amiga 1200 has a built-in hard disk controller in the IDE standard.
However, only the PIO 0 mode of operation has been implemented in the
Amiga 1200, which is the slowest of all PIO modes with a maximum
transfer rate of about 3 MB/s.

The FAST ATA-2/EIDE Controller idea has been based upon the
assumption to fully use the currently produced devices in
the FAST ATA-2/EIDE standard with their increased speed and capacity.
The aim of this solution is to adapt the existing Amiga computer
systems to the new, many times more effective devices, while retaining
full compatibility with the existing software and hardware installed
in the system.

The FAST ATA-2/EIDE Controller has been designed to fit inside the
Amiga 1200 in its standard casing or in any Tower-type casing.
The controller works with two EIDE ports, which can accommodate up
to four devices. Apart from the PIO 0 standard, necessary for
booting up the Amiga computer from a hard disk and for accepting
the oldest types of devices, the card also provides for fast
PIO 3 and PIO 4 modes.



THE  FAST ATA-2/EIDE CONTROLLER FEATURES

The  FAST ATA-2/EIDE Controller with its many features represents
the highest technology controller in its category. The following
list describes some of these features:

Fast transfer rate of up to 16.6 MB/s

The  FAST ATA-2/EIDE Controller with its maximum transfer rate
of 16.6 MB/s in the PIO 4 mode offers a huge capacity reserve for
fast mass storage devices, especially for fast hard drives.
Therefore, applications may run much faster if they can count on
fast access to large data files.

Support of ATAPI standard devices

The  FAST ATA-2/EIDE Controller implements the ATAPI standard as
well, for use with devices like CD-ROM drives, DVD drives, etc.
This enables the connection of ATAPI-standard devices to the Amiga
with no need for the installation of additional software.

Two buffered and terminated EIDE ports

The controller operates with two EIDE ports, which enable
installation of up to four IDE/EIDE/ATAPI devices. Both controller
ports are fully buffered and terminated in accordance with the
recommendations set forth in the ATA-3 specification.

Fully compatible with hard drives of over 4 GB capacity

Limitations on the size of hard disks have been overcome in the
FAST ATA-2/EIDE Controller. The  FAST ATA-2/EIDE Controller may be
used with hard drives of over 4 GB capacity with no need to change
the FastFileSystem used so far for file management.

Automatically configured devices

The Controller automatically recognises any devices attached to it,
negotiates the highest possible data transfer rates, switches the
devices into its appropriate mode and performs data transfers at
their maximum transfer rates.

Automatic recognition of the processor type

The  FAST ATA-2/EIDE Controller automatically detects processor type
used and optimises and modifies some software routines
in order to achieve the highest possible data transfer rate between
the controller and the computer memory.

32-bit access

The computer recognises the controller as a 32-bit device configured
in the address space of the previous IDE controller, which has been
disconnected. Full 32-bit operation of the controller combined with
very efficient software guarantees a significant increase in the
speed of your computer.

Other features of the  FAST ATA-2/EIDE Controller:

* 2 devices in different modes of operation (PIO 3 or PIO 4)
  may be connected simultaneously to each of the ports without speed
  reduction.
* New mass storage data verification procedure free of ROM-based errors.
* The software installation is performed automatically by the
  installation programme script found in the enclosed floppy disk.

To Amiga users worldwide,

Due to recent announcements and problems with Amiga, Digital Images regrets
that we will be suspending all AmigaMCC projects including Sabrina Offline.
Space Station 3000 and Wipeout 2097 will be released as planned, but we will
be suspending all other Amiga developments until further notice.

Everyone behind Digital Images has enthusiastically supported the Amiga
through the good times and the bad times. But with the recent troubles with
Amiga, the entire team has unanimously decided to suspend all Amiga
developments (with the exception of Space Station 3000 and Wipeout 2097). We
regret to have to take these measures, but Digital Images cannot afford to
spend time, resources and money developing for a computer which now, as it
seems may never appear.

We hope that everybody reading this understands our position as this is the
last thing that any of us would ever have wanted to do, but Amiga have made
promise after promise that something would appear, but it has not.

We deeply regret this decision, but it is a final measure that has to be
taken. We wish that we wouldn't have to go this far, but we now have no
other option - it is the last thing that any of us wanted to do. We would
appreciate it if everybody understood our position and wouldn't send e-mails
of anger and abuse. We have done everything in our power to avoid this, but
it just isn't possible.

If the Amiga does indeed rise again, which we hope it does, we will return.

We hope that you will enjoy our upcoming releases of Space Station 3000 and
Wipeout 2097.

If you do have any questions or queries concerning this announcement, please
e-mail info@digital-images.demon.co.uk

We thank you all once again for your loyal and devoted support.

Kind Regards,

Stuart Walker
Digital Images

Subject:      CCC Presseinfo zu Hintertuer in MS Crypto API

Presseinformation des Chaos Computer Club

03. September 1999

Microsoft-Betriebssysteme mit eingebauter Hintertür:
Sichere Verschlüsselung mit Windows in Frage gestellt

Durch detaillierte Untersuchung des Betriebssystem Windows NT durch
einen amerikanischen Sicherheitssoftware-Entwickler konnte eine massive
Software-Hintertür, die offenbar auf den US-Geheimdienst NSA zurückgeht
in den Betriebssystemen Windows 95, 98, NT sowie Windows 2000 (beta)
entdeckt werden. Diese hat nachhaltige Auswirkungen auf die Sicherheit
der Microsoft-Betriebssysteme.

Nachdem die Bestrebungen des amerikanischen Geheimdienstes NSA (National
Security Agency) zur weltweiten Kommunikationskontrolle mit Hilfe
international einheitlichen Regulierung von Verschlüsselungsverfahren
herbe Rückschläge erlitten hat, wird nun offenbar versucht dasselbe Ziel
durch Einbau von Hintertüren in die marktdominierenden amerikanischen
Softwareprodukte zu erreichen.

Die von Microsoft für Programmierer zur Verfügung gestellte Anwendungs-
schnittstelle für Verschlüsselungsfunktionen, die sog. "Crypto API" ist
gegen das Einspielen und Verändern von Verschlüsselungsmodulen im
Betriebssystem normalerweise geschützt. Externe Programmierer oder
Unternehmen, die Verschlüsselungsfunktionen für die Microsoft-
Betriebssysteme zur Verfügung stellen, müssen diese Module zunächst von
Microsoft signieren lassen, bevor sie in der Crypto API verfügbar sind.

Bei der Integration von externen Verschlüsselungsmodulen werden diese
von der Crypto API auf die entsprechende korrekte Signatur mit einem
Microsoft-RSA Key geprüft. Zum Zwecke dieser Prüfung befindet sich der
Microsoft RSA Public Key im entsprechenden Modul neben einem weiteren,
bislang nicht identifizierten RSA Public Key. Durch die versehentliche
Herausgabe einer noch mit Debug-Symbolen versehenen Version des
Prüfmoduls (in Windows NT4, SP5) konnte jetzt der zweite RSA Key als
offensichtlich dem amerikanischen Geheimdienst NSA (National Security
Agency) zugehörig identifiziert werden; er wird im Programm mit als
"NSAKEY" bezeichnet.

Aufbauend auf dieser Erkenntnis muß man es als unmöglich bezeichnen, auf
der Microsoft Crypto API aufbauend sichere Verschlüsselung zu betreiben.
Denn durch Signierung von der NSA produzierter unsicherer
Verschlüsselungsfunktionen ist es möglich, eigentlich sichere
Verschlüsselungsmodule zu überspielen.

Für den Anwender bedeutet dies, daß er sich nicht auf die Sicherheit
etwaiger Softwareprodukte verlassen kann, selbst wenn diese durch
öffentliche Tests und Dokumentation für sicher befunden wurden; denn
diese können längst durch manipulierte Versionen der NSA ersetzt worden
sein.

"Der wirtschaftliche und gesellschaftliche Schaden durch derartige
Hintertüren in amerikanischen Softwareprodukten ist kaum abschätzbar. Es
kann einfach nicht angehen, daß die deutsche Bundesregierung auf der
einen Seite autonome Verschlüsselung fördert, auf der anderen Seite sich
selbst auf derartig unsichere Betriebssysteme verlässt" kommertiert
CCC-Sprecher Andy Müller-Maguhn den Vorfall; "selbst in sensiblen
Bereichen des Bundestages und der Regierung wird Windows eingesetzt".

Club-Sprecher Frank Rieger forderte in dem Zusammenhang eine europäische
Open-Source Software-Initiative für Sicherheits-Software ohne
Hintertüren.

Der Chaos Computer Club fordert die Gesetzgeber zum Schutz der
Allgemeinheit auf, eine Deklarationspflicht für Hintertüren bei Software
einzuführen. Dies gilt insbesondere für Software aus Ländern, in denen
die Hersteller per Gesetz zum Einbau entsprechender Hintertüren bzw.
Sicherheitseinschränkungen verpflichtet werden können. "Die Benutzer
sollten nicht länger mit scheinbaren Sicherheitsfunktionen getäuscht
werden." sagte CCC-Sprecher Frank Rieger.

Die Erkenntnisse des amerikanischen Hintertür-Entdeckers gehen sogar
noch weiter; auch Angriffsmöglichkeiten durch Ersetzung des NSA-Keys mit
einem beliebigen anderen sind vom ihm beschrieben.

Editor's Thoughts and Introduction:
 If you spend much time on the Internet, you may not need this special
short issue. For those who haven't heard, as of today several news
sites such as ZDNet and CNET are reporting that Jim Collas has
resigned as President of Amiga. Vice President and Chief Operating
Officer Tom Schmidt has been promoted to take over.
 Here's a quote from the CNET story, written by Jim Davis:
"Collas,former senior vice president of global products for Gateway,
has left Amiga after less than nine months on the job, Gateway
spokesperson Brad Shaw confirmed. He is being replaced by Tom Schmidt,
who joined Amiga in April as its senior vice president and COO.

 Schmidt was formerly with AlliedSignal, a manufacturing and
technology concern in the market for aerospace products and services
and automotive products."

 Separately, other web sites indicate that Bill McEwen is out as
Amiga's contact to the press and users. This change apparently
happened Tuesday.
 It would seem we now know why the sudden change to quiet mode by
Amiga. The only good news in all of this is the reports we've seen all
indicate Amiga intends to continue with its existing plans. The
question here is - how close are those plans to what we all think they
are? We'll find out over time.
 "Amiga Update" will attempt to keep you informed about any other
changes at Amiga as we go forward. At this point, there's no
information available at Amiga's web site.

Hello All,

I regret to inform that Bill McEwen told me as of
Tuesday he will no longer be under contract at
Amiga.  Sigh.

I called him about some newsletter plans he had
in mind, only to receive yet another bit of
disappointing news.

Subject:  Das Markenrecht soll geändert werden - Aktion gegen Markengrabbing
Reply-to: info@markengrabbing.de

Hallo und guten morgen!

Es gibt sehr sehr gute Neuigkeiten für unsere Aktion, denn der
Sprecher "Neue Medien" der SPD-Bundestagsfraktion hat erneut
versichern lassen, daß er einen Fall wie "webspace" einfach nicht
akzeptieren kann und uns in unseren Bemühungen bzgl. der
Markenlöschung sowie der Änderung des Markenrechtes
unterstützen will.


*** Bewegt sich der Bundestag? ***
Wie bereits angedeutet, soll eine Änderung des Markenrechten auf
den Weg gebracht werden. Dies bestätigte das Büro des
Sprechers "Neue Medien" der SPD-Fraktion mir in einem Telefonat
aus der vergangenen Woche.
Unsere Aktion wolle man gerne unterstützen und hat mir viele
Hinweise gegeben, wie wir vielleicht schnell etwas erreichen
können.
Hierbei spielen vor allem auch die Aktivitäten des Patentamtes eine
Rolle (auch im Nachfeld einer "unbegreiflichen" Markeneintragung).
Die Unterstützung der SPD-Fraktion wurde schon zugesagt
http://www.markengrabbing.de/news_tauss_2.htm
http://www.markengrabbing.de/news.htm


*** Wann hört es endlich auf ***
Das Patentamt leistet sich immer mehr Schnitzer bzgl.
Markeneintragungen. So wurde -wie vielen von euch wahrscheinlich
schon bekannt- auch die Bezeichnung "Y2K" für das Jahr 2000 in
verschiedenen Klassen eingetragen. Sollte die Eintragung
bestehen bleiben, können alle möglichen freien Verwendungen
dieses Begriffes in Frage gestellt werden ...
http://www.markengrabbing.de/news.htm

(Hatte da nicht auch einmal jemand "Millenium" als Marke
eingetragen ... ?)


*** Lizenzvertrag der What's Up AG - Wolf im Schafspelz ? ***
Liest man den (derzeit) kostenlos angebotenen Lizenzvertrag der
What's Up AG für deren Marke "webspace" einmal aufmerksam
durch, so kann man durchaus skeptisch werden, was damit
bezweckt werden soll ...
http://www.markengrabbing.de/wuag_lizenz.htm


*** Zur Aufheiterung ***
Auf onlinekosten.de wird ein kleines Programm vorgestellt, wie
man sicher das Markenrecht nutzen kann ... ganz lustig ... einfach
einmal durchlesen ...
http://www.markengrabbing.de/news.htm


Bitte unterstützt uns auch weiterhin kräftig bei unserer Aktion,
denn noch sind wir lange nicht am Ziel !!!

Ich wünsche euch allen eine schöne Woche :-)


Bis später
Euer
Thorsten Hassiepen

Editor's Thoughts and Introduction:

 Even if I didn't have many other reason to use an Amiga (and I have
many), I'd still be a member of the Amiga community just to see what
might happen next. This month has provided many examples of why that
attitude exists. First, from out of the blue comes a company no one
has heard of, by name of Iwin Corporation. They promise two new Amiga
compatibles, to begin manufacturing in September, that offer just
about everything any Amigan could want. Compatibility, features, power
(Motorola 68060 or Power PC), and low prices. The natural reaction is
to wonder if they're a hoax or for real. Our opinion is the company is
probably for real, but we wonder if it's possible for them to deliver
what they intend. We have some information for you below. We had
intended to publish the specifications of the two models Iwin is
discussing, but can't. Everything on their website is copyrighted, and
they haven't responded to our inquiries. We haven't asked for
permission, because we didn't get an answer to our first note. Perhaps
that's because we used the sentence "If everything turns out to be on
the up and up, we'll be happy to carry news releases and information
from Iwin to help you get the word out." Perhaps we insulted them,
though that wasn't our intent. If you want the specifications, you can
find them at their web site: http://www.iwin-corp.com.
 As you will see from the note from Amiga President Jim Collas below,
we'd hoped to hear something about Iwin from Amiga this week. We kept
this issue back, hoping to include that information. It's now Saturday
night and we've heard nothing. Instead, Amiga has gone quite, as we
discuss in the next paragraph. At this point, we're drawing no
conclusions from the timing.
 The second strange thing this month was the decision by both Amiga
and Iwin to stop communicating with the Amiga community for now, to
concentrate on products. They both announced it at about the same
time, and in similar terms. We have statements below. We think it's
probably a good idea for Amiga to scale back their communication as
they've put a lot of time into it. A lot of information has gone out
to the world at large also, probably too much. We note that the press
section of the bulletin board on the Amiga site is shut down, with a
statement that too much proprietary information slipped through.
 We do have one more thing to say about the Iwin products. If they
become available as planned, we'd be happy to look at one and review
it. We almost never do reviews here due to space constraints, but this
would be such a significant event we'd make an exception - even if we
have to give the computer back afterwards. ;-)

"AU" HOUSEKEEPING:
 This is the second issue to go out under the auspices of the ONElist
site. Overall, my impression is ONElist is working out reasonably
well. A few of our readers may have had other opinions. Let me share a
note I received from ONElist recently, and which many of you may have
received as well:

"Dear ONElist Subscriber

 You may have recently received the onelist_announce newsletter.
During the recent transfer of email lists to ONElist, some new members
were inadvertently subscribed to this newsletter. We sincerely
apologize to you for this oversight and would like to assure you that
your email address has now been removed from this newsletter and you
will no longer receive editions of it.

 This applies only to the onelist_announce newsletter. Any other lists
you subscribed to will be unaffected.

 Thank you in advance for your understanding and again, our apologies.

 The ONElist Team"

 The note explains some puzzling letters we got from readers
expressing concerns about ONElist, including fears of spamming. We're
inclined to view this as a genuine mistake on their part, and a
particularly ill timed one from our point of view as it happened just
as we switched to their service.
 Let me point out that we have used ONElist in several capacities for
many months before moving "Amiga Update" there, and we had no bad
experiences. Please keep us informed of any problems you may
have, but we really don't expect any serious problems with this
relationship.

IT'S NOT US ...
 Finally, we need to comment on a new Amiga site just established in
Norway. The site is called .AmiUpdate - a name that certainly got our
attention. Please note that there is no connection between that site
and this publication. We've asked them to place a statement to that
affect on their site, and they readily agreed.
 That doesn't mean .AmiUpdate isn't a good site. It turns out to be a
very good place to go on the net for news and especially interviews.
Check it out at http://amiupdate.8m.com/ - we think you'll enjoy it.

19 Jul 1999

Brad,

 Thanks for the years of Amiga Updates... you should be given an Amiga
ambassadorship for all your hard work and dedication.

 While I think the move towards Linux on the Amiga is the best move
for that platform, the development of an Amiga Workbench, to set it
apart from the other window managers, is key to its success. A
customized X display server is necessary to take advantage of any
proprietary graphics Amiga might house. Another feature to might
separate it from the masses is to put the Linux kernel in ROM, or
flash RAM, like earlier Amiga models. That will make the archictecture
flexible for server, workstation, or as a mananaged PC on a network
much more easier. If not, it will be just another Linux port.

 For those with less than ecstatic enthusiasm towards this move, keep
in mind that the original Amiga OS is not so different from Linux.
Both have scripting and GUI interfaces to OS and disk. Both do not
rely upon lame hardware addressing schemes, such as C:. Both are
multitasking and Amiga has easily had multiuser capabilities with 3rd
party software, that really work. Linux also offers the most stable
operating system I have ever known to work with, unlike Windows,
Macintosh and, alas, Amiga.

 Finally, both units are conducive to the creative minded, not some
warped vision to conform to somebody else's idea of ideal computing. A
marriage of the two should produce one gem of a multimedia personal
computer for the next millennia.

Robert

Robert,
 Good thoughts, and worth sharing with our readers. Thanks for sending

Hello Brad,
 I found you on "Gramma BBS" in the Seattle area. I enjoy your
newsletter!
 I have an Amiga 3000 and a floptical drive which is about 5 years
old. Unfortunately, it stopped working recently....the problem seems
to be that my CPU can't find it "not mounted". Any suggestions about
how to temporarily have my computer "find" the missing drive?
 I bought the drive from Tulin Technology in San Jose. Another company
there was Insite Peripherals. The phone numbers for those firms are no
longer working. Do you have forwarding numbers for them? If not, can
you suggest where I might have this unit repaired or possibly I might
even buy another floptical drive....I have a large number of disks and
need something to read them!

    Thanks in advance.

Best wishes,
Tim
~~~~~~
Tim,
 Never having used a floptical, I'm not a good person to answer your
question. Can one of the readers help please?

 Hi Brad, I love this letter, always great and ontop. you work very
hard and it is greatly appreciated what you do , but this line below
my entry has just brought me over the top, I cant believe that they
would even consider it.

 not to get into Flame wars here but What is this??!!! if we dont like
what they are doing to the Amiga, ? if we dont like that they are
taking the machine and turning an advanced O/S into another Linux
Clone running Xwindows ? damn straight we dont like it. they shouldnt
either ..


 just remember the name doesn't mean a damn thing. its the technology
behind it, hell I bet the new Amiga is just some gateway unix box that
they peeled off the sticker on and on plopped the amiga logo...


 and to Alan , Rick and the rest of the tech nerds @ Amiga R&D ,We
love the Amiga, We love everything about it. but when you CHANGE
EVERYHING ABOUT IT WE LOVE , We dont love it anymore. because it is
not what we fell in love with... remember that when you cash your
paychecks...I think that Amiga is Using the Amiga Community's Strength
to hold them together untill they get BIG enough to Stab us all in the
back and leave use behind..


 I AM WITH PHASE5 ON THIS ONE...

Chris,
 I get the feeling we'll never settle the dispute over Amiga's
approach or what others would like to do. One thing you may want to
look at is the series of items on Iwin in this issue. While we're
still not sure what all is involved in their efforts, what they're
saying has to be music to the "Classic" Amiga fan's ears.

be the first information posted by the mysterious company about the
Amiga. It went un-noticed in June, including by us. Brad}

 Iwin Corporation today has announced to support e more operating
system in the future with as many applications from the Iwin business
units as possible. The new founded Amiga division of the software
business unit will produce high-quality Amiga applications and
multimedia titles. Iwin is pleased to hear about the promising
upcoming Amiga events and how the Amiga shall again roll over the

 Hello Amiga fans and freaks,

 We were watching the things going on here {Amiga newsgroup
comp.sys.amiga.misc} now since a couple of hours. Read all the posts
from you, smiled a little and now decided to really post our own
statement. We expected a lot of bad posts and mails, but that what we
had to discover during the last hours was awful. We understand that
the Amiga community was fooled by Amiga Inc. for a long time, however
persons who cannot or don't want to believe in our products - you
don't have to.

 First of all, we are not here to fight some battles with any kind of
person or firm.

 Second, there were some questions posted here which we will now
answer:

 1. About the firm "Iwin Corporation"

 Yes, Iwin was incorporated in Delaware. What's the problem? Commodore
Business Machines was incorporated on the Bahamas. Yes, Lewes/DE is
currently our only US contact but we will open another office in
Houston soon. Sorry guys, but we are new as Iwin and new in the US.
Things take some time - even in the US.

 CEO of the firm is Martin Steinbach. He doesn't have anything to do
with these "Martin Steinbach's" usually found when searching with
Altavista. He is also not connected with Scientology or any other
sect.

 The firm has 338 employees in sum around the world.

 Iwin was founded because of the merger of Worksoft and Branch
software. As you might have read on the webpage - Worksoft AUSTRIA.
The address www.worksoft.com doesn't have anything to do with Worksoft
Austria.

 Yes, the domain name was registerred only in June. Sorry guys, as we
said we are new.

 Regarding the German telephone number. You can find contact
information on the webpage.

 Why didn't you hear about us before? This is very simple. Just take a
look at the past posts here and you know why. We were thinking for a
very long time when and how to announce our products and we have to
confess that we are almost sorry for doing it.

 About the commodore deal. We are saying "We are negotiating" with
Tulip. We want to sell our products under the name and logo of
Commodore. We didn't say we are Commodore.

 Now regarding the new classic amigas:

 No, we do not use any of copyrighted Amiga or Gateway or whatever
patents or technology.

 8MB chipram might be impossible with Amiga chips. As we mentioned
already, we have a completely new archticture. If somebody needs this
now or not - it's up to you if you want/need it or not.

 Every further question what we received in the last few hours is
currently being put on a special FAQ section on our webpage. There you
will be able to read about technical datas etc.

 Once more, we are not here to have some fights with somebody. On the
contrary (as we mentioned in the interview) we would like to work
closely together with Amiga Inc. and other Amiga firms.

 If there are any questions left please post them here as a reply.
Thank you.

 Yours,

Martin Steinbach    Rue Ann Mark
President           Vice President

21 Aug 1999

Dear Amiga users and friends,

 As that we are getting more and more questions about the prices
mentioned on our website and in several posts here before we decided
to write this message.

 The entry price for an A5200M (ex A510) system will be !around! $239.
This is just for the computer, case, floppy, keyboard, mouse, etc. but
NO harddisk, monitor, etc.

 The entry price for an A5300M (ex A1010) system will be !around! $499
for same configuration as above.

 The P {Power PC. Brad} versions will be around $100 more than the M
versions. There are currently no prices for the M+/P+ or the A5400!

 Many people were asking us how we can make these prices. Well, if you
are buying enough of these things from a manufactor, then you get very
low prices - this is how the market works. As that we have three major
partners (for producing the computers, producing the chips, etc.) we
can keep our production costs very low.

 Information about the names:

 Because we have received many requests for it, we have decided to
rename the computers. The final decission is still not made, but it
will be fixed by the end of the next week.

Current names/numbers:

A5200 = ex A510 (Cleveland)
A5300 = ex A1010 (Ockna)
A5400 = ex A2010 (Rita)

 Names in brackets are the projects names.

 If you have any further question regarding these things, please post
them directly here.

Best regards,

-- Martin and Rue Ann

19 Aug 1999

 Late today was the first time I have ever heard of Iwin Corp so I
don't know if they are legitimate or not. If they have attempted to
contact Amiga, Inc in the past I am not aware of these attempts. If
the products they describe on their website are real, I would be
interested in talking to them. I have always felt that advancing the
current Amiga platform while we launch a next generation Amiga would
help the Amiga community. This is why we are doing O/S 3.5. Given the
state of affairs when I took over six months ago, I didn't believe
that advancing the current Amiga hardware was feasible. We haven't had
the internal resources to develop both product lines and I didn't see
any external solutions. If Iwin is real, it may be an interesting
option for an O/S 3.5 platform that could also run our next generation
Amiga OE. The new AMiga OE will be fairly portable although it will
optimized for next generation hardware. I am unavailable until Monday
and will contact Iwin at that time. I should caution that I am a bit
skeptical of their claims given nobody in the Amiga community has
heard of them before. I won't make any conclusions until I talk to
them. I will update the community sometime next week.

Sincerely,
Jim

 San Diego, CA - The Amiga Advisory Council is officially launched
today August 6th, 1999.

 The community submitted hundreds of Nominations, and based upon your
input we are pleased to welcome the following members of the Amiga
Advisory Council:

Andrew Elia       Ben Vost       Bill Panagouleas Cade Hannan
Carsten Schroeder Chris Heereman Christian Kemp   Christoph Dietz
Conor Kerr        Craig DeLahoy  Dave Law         Don Hicks
Gary Peake        Gunter Horbach Heinz Wrobel     Hulger Kruse
Ian Greenaway     Jeff Rose      Juergen Haage    Kermit Woodall
Luca Denelon      Malte Mundt    Randhir Jesrani  Thomas Frieden
Thomas Raukamp    Thomas Svenson Tom Lively       Trish Zlotek
Wayne Hunt        Wayne Martin

 The objective of the AAC is to help us better plan the future of
Amiga through close communications with people who are viewed as
leaders in the Amiga community. The members of the AAC have all
executed non-disclosure agreements (NDAs), with Amiga and will have
access to confidential information regarding future products and
plans. This allows Amiga to share sensitive information with respected
members of the Amiga community without having to disclose our plans
publicly.

 The members of the AAC were selected to represent their different
areas of affiliation within the Amiga community - the Press,
Developers, Dealers/Distributors, and the User Group organizations.
The AAC is designed to provide a flow of information from the
Community to the Amiga management team and from Amiga back to the
community. Each of the members of the AAC will act as a conduit to the
community and the areas that they represent.

 We held our first official meetings with the AAC in London and in
Sacramento with over 20 AAC members participate in these first
official meetings. The AAC was able to share with Amiga many of the
desires, and needs of the community. As we work towards the launch of
the Next Generation Amiga the input received by the AAC will help
guide those decisions.

 "We are excited to welcome the members of the AAC as active
representatives of the Amiga community and look forward to
implementing many of the programs suggested in the near future, stated
Jim Collas, "together we will make a difference in computing forever."

Mini Report on the ADU show for 1999.

 The Amiga DownUnder show was held at the Hotel Heritage in
Narrabundah, ACT Australia. The show was in the Canberra room of the
hotel which I presume is normally used for small functions or
weddings. I attended the show on the Saturday. The Show was on both
Saturday and Sunday.

 The main letdown came as soon as I walked in and asked about the
schedule for the Jim Collas speech. Unfortunately Jim couldn't make it
down to the show but Petro Tyschtschenko did make it. I was
disappointed but I realise how far away we are down here and I know
he's a busy man so that's ok. The next thing I looked for at the
stalls was for any copies of OS3.5. I knew it was doubtful that it
would be ready in time for us but there was still some hope. I
couldn't see any copies but I'd just arrived in time for Jurgen Haages
demonstration of OS3.5 so I stood and watched that. Jurgen told us
that the release would be ready in late September. Apparently,
although not released at the show, it was still the official "Launch"
of OS3.5.

 If you've been keeping up with the developments in OS3.5 then there
wasn't anything really new to be learnt. Jurgen demonstrated most of
the new features that he could and discussed other things that he
couldn't show (eg. 4gig+ HD(only because they didn't have one big
enough for him to work with)) and then answered any questions from the
crowd of around 250 Amigans. Jurgen told us it would be available in
late September for 99DM, $67 US or about $95 Australian dollars. My
impression of OS3.5 is positive. All the preferences windows are
resizeable because they use the new Reactor boopsi classes, you get a
current release version of Miami and AWeb and there is an email client
included . The new Glow-icons look nice and Jurgen showed us how when
you change screendepth from say, 256 colours to 16 or 4, the icons
still looked nice. One unusual decision I found though was that the
OS3.5 manual is on the CD in html and .pdf format. When quizzed about
the pdf format (Adobe Acrobat format) Jurgen told us that most Amigans
in Germany have a PC as well so they'll view that on their PC. Anyway,
there are several pdf viewers available on aminet. The developer tools
and docs are all on the CD as well as a full version of OS3.1 (in case
you need to revert back.) The installer script also creates a rescue
disk which will allow you to boot off floppy disk and reinstall the
system from the CD. Overall, I would say that OS3.5 is worth upgrading
for and is good value.

 Straight after the demo, Petro and Jurgen drew the door prizes which
were

1st A1200 plus Amiga gift pack
2nd Amiga gift pack
3rd Amiga gift pack

 A special draw was held for 20 copies of OS3.5. These were specially
prepared Amiga DownUnder versions that the lucky winners received and
they will get an update when the final version is released. It's clear
to see that they are just waiting to iron out the last few bugs. All
packaging etc. is finished. These prizes will become collectors items.

 I believe that the same door prize draws were held on the Sunday as
well.

 After the demonstration I went around to all the stalls. There were
no international Amiga companies there apart from our own GPsoftware.
They were demonstrating and selling Opus Magellan and Dopus T-Shirts.

 Computa Magic had a stall and were selling software and hardware and
seemed to be doing a good trade.

 UniTech electronics was there selling a full range of stuff including
the round boing ball "Amiga, keep the momentum going" mouse mats. I
had to have one of those. :-)

 RMF were there with their QuickNet ethernet cards for the
500/1200/2/3/4000's This Australian company has been around for years
making networking cards that were always just out of most Amigan's
price range. They were selling them for "show-special" prices cheaper
than an Ariadne. If I still had my BBS (and therefore had a need to
network my Amiga's) I'd have snapped up a couple of them.

 CAUG and MAUG were there (Canberra / Melbourne Amiga User Groups)
with info about themselves as well as various new and second hand
items and a range of Amiga stickers and boing ball stickers that Petro
smuggled through customs for them.

 An Internet Cafe was set up with about 6 A1200's networked together
for free use throughout the show. These were getting a full work-out.

 The ADUG (Amiga DownUnder User Group) was launched at the show and
had a stall signing up members. This is an attempt to bring all
Australian Amiga users and is a great idea. The Amiga community in
Australia is small and our country is so vast.

 Being from Sydney, my last Amiga show was the WOCA show at Darling
Harbour in about 1992/3. In comparison to that, the ADU 99 show was
tiny. But the spirit was still there. The turn out to the show was
excellent. (It was quite crowded at times) I'm glad I drove down for
it and I'd like to thank the organisers for putting on the show and to
congratulate them all. Well done guys. I'm looking forward to future
shows!

 Keep an eye on the official Amiga Down Under website for a full show
report with pictures and transcripts of the speeches.

 {The following was spotted recently posted to the Usenet. It's an
opinion of the next generation Amigas by Amiga legend Dave Haynier.
Brad}

Name: Dave Haynie
Email: dhaynie@jersey.net
Location: Arid South Jersey
Occupation: Iconoclast

 Wow! It's like Christmas, hearing all the good postings about Amiga
after all this time (ok, two ignorant cavemen didn't like it, but the
appreciation of fine art is beyond the grasp of some lesser minds). I
worked at C=/Amiga from 1983-1994, and consulted for Amiga
Technologies (ESCOM) 1995-1996. The dream hasn't died for many of us,
and it's telling, if you view the history, that fools destroyed the
Amiga from within, not competition. For hardware: in 1991, I was
designing the next generation Amiga systems architecture, to replace
the A3000/A4000 design. With all the cool stuff that went in there, I
can honestly say the PC industry has pretty much caught up and, in
many places, surpassed this architecture (if you include USB and I2O,
they have nailed it). So using part or all of a PC design can still
yield a perfectly Amiga-like system. Software, on the other hand, is
at issue. I was very concerned when Gateway/Amiga dumped QNX (very
much a modern Amiga-like OS) for Linux. Linux is a fine free UNIX, but
in many places, it's the opposite of AmigaOS. You can't do multimedia
on Linux in the Amiga way (in fact, even Windows is better, today, and
Windows usually fails the Amiga definition of recorder-ready
multimedia). You don't have autoconfig at all, not even the primitive
static autoconfig Windows uses. But this may well change. Jim Collas
called me last month, we spoke for more than an hour, and I'm
convinced they may do well. Basically, at worst, you'll have a machine
that fulfills the promise of NeXT, only very open. At best, you'll
have that merged with basic Amiga ideas, and perhaps these will
propagate to the greater Linux community. If you were to look for one
simple way to Linux, in general, doing "the desktop thing" better than
Windows, all you need is an influx of Amiga technology -- we had that
stuff done right, for the most part, back in '86. I can't say how
it'll come out, but Collas seems to be the best guy since Jeff Porter
(A500/A2000/A3000 era) to be running things at a solvent Amiga-owning
company. You could do worse, market wise, to base things around Linux
and Java, so even if it the machine doesn't pass my Amiga acid test,
it has a good chance of standing down Windows at 20 paces. And if it
the new Amiga, for real, done right, reaching The Mainstream, people
won't see personal computers the same way again.

5 Aug 1999

 Due to the fact that there will not be the regular Midwest Amiga show
in Columbus, Ohio for 1999....we have started a new show. It is called
Amiga Extravaganza99 and will be held at the National guard Armoury in
Indianapolis, Indiana. Get togethers at the show hotel and setup for
vendors, user groups and developers will take place on October 8. The
vendor area and the seminars will take place on October 9 and 10,
1999.

 We have had some good vendor response so far and are looking to
expand it even more (anyone from anywhere in the world is welcome!)
This show is being billed as The Affordable Amiga Computer Show.
Nothing is wrong with fancy and glitzy shows, but this one will have
the theme of affordable while still being fun and productive. For
those who want to spend their hard earned money on fun, food, software
and hardware for their favorite computer. The rates for the hotel are
very reasonable, the price for vendors and user groups to rent table
or booth space is much lower than average. (one of the reasons some of
the dealers in Canada gave for not being able to make some of the
shows has been the cost to them, versus the sales they can expect to
make.) We want to encourage as many vendors and developers and user
groups as we can to come together for this event.

 To find out more about the show, goto the page set up for the show:
http://www.midlink.com/amiga/AEShows.html

 This show is being produced by A.R.C.U.G (Amiga Response Crew User
Group) under the leadership of it's President J. R. Wilson and
Vice-President Bryant Pedigo, with some assistance from FWD Computing.

The hotel of choice for the show is:
Comfort Inn West/Airport
5855 Rockville Road
Indianpolis, IN 46224
Reservations:
317-487-9800
1-800-323-2088
Fax: 317-487-1125

 Show rates are $58.95 plus tax per night and when making a
reservation let them know it is for Amiga Extravaganza99.

 Looking forward to seeing many of you there (as well as at AmigaFest
in Dayton the last weekend of August and at the Annual Amiga picnic
the 12th of September in Atlanta, Georgia) Thanks,

 12 August 1999, Göttingen, Germany: Dietmar Knoll announces that the
Geographical Amiga Users Home Page Internet List (GAUHPIL) is
celebrating its fifth online anniversary.

 The GAUHPIL is a moderated list of personal homepages of Amiga users.
It was established as early as in 1994. Today, a major update was
released. Currently listed are 785 personal homepages of Amiga users
from 33 countries on six continents!

 There is also a new page for German-speaking readers. It explains the
rules of the GAUHPIL and describes in brief the contents of the
sub-pages.

 All Amiga users are invited to send info about their personal
homepages to be added to the list. Please consider also to add a link
on your page to guide more attention to this service!

ARQ. It is the successor of KeyReq and improves the look and handling
of requesters of all programs which use the standard system requester
functions (Easy- RequestArgs, AutoRequest, BuildEasyRequestArgs,
BuildSysRequest) for that purpose.

FEATURES:
=========

 o Configurable requester logos which can also be animated.

 o Configurable button images and button look.

 o Configurable requester background pattern.

 o Keyboard control. Cycling through buttons with TAB, SHIFT TAB and
CURSOR keys. Activation of highlighted gadget with RETURN and another
configurable key (default LCOMMAND v). Activation of rightmost gadget
width ESCAPE and another configurable key (default LCOMMAND b).
Activation of buttons by keyboard can be aborted by pressing SHIFT or
ESCAPE before releasing the button activation key.

 o Possibility to drag the requesters around by clicking anywhere in
the window.

 o Possibility to make the requesters open in the center of the screen
or under the mouse pointer.

 o Very special conditional configuration.

 o It's possible to configure almost everything, like spacing between
the single elements of the requester and it's alignment, the color of
the highlight rectangle and much more.

1. Die Bildgröße (und Darstellungsgröße) muß exakt 352x288 sein.
2. Die Bild-Rate muß 25fps sein.
3. Die Bit-Rate muß z.B. 1152000 sein (evtl auch etwas mehr oder weniger)
4. Es muß ein MPEG1 sein.

1. Mit Hilfe der Zeile 56 dafür sorgen, daß nur jedes 2. Bild verwendet wird ("2.0" eintragen) Hinweis: Die Bildanzahl im MPEG ist jetzt natürlich nur die Hälfte der Anzahl der Bilder
2. Die ToolBox einschalten (Zeile 59: "1" eintragen)
3. Das Bild etwas verkleinern, so daß nach dem Skalieren der Bild-Aspekt gewahrt bleibt. Beim Verkleinern einfach die Mitte nehmen. Zeile 60: "-1 -1", Zeile 61: "704 272"
4. Das Bild auf die Größe des MPEGs skalieren (62: "-2 -2")

1. MPEG1, Layer2 (als .mp2 bekannt)
2. 224kbps muß eingehalten werden
3. Alle mir bekannten Filme haben 44kHz, Stereo. Ich weiß aber nicht, ob das zwingend ist.

Subject:   Reaktionen des Bundestages - Aktion gegen Markengrabbing
Reply-to:  info@markengrabbing.de

Hallo!

Es tut sich immer wieder etwas in dem Fall "webspace", womit man doch fast
nicht mehr gerechnet hatte ...

*** SPD Bundestagsfraktion reagiert ***
Der Sprecher "Neue Medien" der SPD-Bundestagsfraktion hat in den letzten
Tagen mit einem Rundbrief auf die an die SPD-Fraktion gerichteten Emails
geantwortet. Wie seinem Schreiben zu entnehmen ist, wurde u. a. die
Bundesregierung über den notwendigen politischen Handlungsbedarf informiert.
Außerdem wurde angeregt, daß der Schaden für Firmen -sofern der Schaden
auf einer Amtspflichtverletzung des Patentamtes beruhen sollte, nach
entsprechender rechtlicher Begutachtung "unbürokratisch" geregelt werden soll.
http://www.markengrabbing.de/news.htm
http://www.markengrabbing.de/news_tauss.htm


*** What's Up AG bietet Lizenzvertrag kostenlos an ***
Wie einer Pressemeldung der What's Up AG (Unterhaching) zu entnehmen ist,
bieten diese nun den Lizenzvertrag für deren Marke "webspace" kostenlos
(zumindest für das erste Jahr) an. Informationen können per Email bei Frau Ines
Beekmann angefordert werden.
http://www.markengrabbing.de/news.htm


*** Forum von FvG doch erreichbar ? ***
Zumindest mit einem Direktlink war das Forum des FvG noch erreichbar.
Anscheinend wurde nur der Link auf der Startseite entfernt.
http://www.markengrabbing.de/news.tm


*** Weitere WEB Marken ***
Bei einer Recherche in der Außenstelle des Patentamtes in Jena hat Heiko
Hilscher erstaunliche Markeneinträge gefunden...
http://www.markengrabbing.de/web_marken.htm


*** Kostenklage ***
FvG hat in diversen Newsgroups gepostet, daß eine erste Kostenklage gegen
den Betreiber der Domain web4space.de eingereicht wurde, nachdem dieser
zwar die unterlassungserklärung unterschrieben hatte, aber die anwaltlichen
Kosten nicht tragen wollte.
Wie uns der Betreiber heute mitteilte, hat er dies auch erst aus dem Internet
erfahren. Mittlerweile hat er seine Firma (Domain) umbenannt.
http://www.markengrabbing.de/news.htm


*** Der Fall "Fibromyalgie" ***
Nachdem wir heute mit dem Vertreter der Markeninhaberin der Marke
"Firbomyalgie" (DFV e.V.) telefoniert hatten und um die Zusendung der
Markenurkunde baten, erhielten wir ein (leider unvollständiges) Fax mit einer
Stellungnahme und "Gegendarstellung" gegen den Bericht aus der Rheinischen
Post vom 18.08.1999
http://www.markengrabbing.de/fall_fibro_stell.htm


*** Abstimmungen ***
Auf unseren Seiten haben wir nun in der rechten Spalte ein
Abstimmungsformular eingebaut, mit dem ihr uns
a) mitteilen könne, was ihr mehr auf unseren Seiten sehen möchtet
b) ob die marke "webspace" gelöscht werden soll
Bitte nehmt alle rege teil ;-)
http://www.markengrabbing.de/start.htm


*** Noch mehr Logos ***
Wieder und wieder erhalten wir neue Logos! Darunter sind viele wirklich gute
Ideen und Gestaltungen :-))
http://www.markengrabbing.de/logos.htm


*** Unterstützung ***
Hier möchte ich euch alle nochmals dazu aufrufen, daß der Kampf gegen
Markengrabbing noch lange nicht gewonnen ist und wir weiterhin viel
Unterstützung benötigen.
Bitte ruft weiterhin Freunde, Bekannte, Kollegen, Kunden etc. auf, unsere
Aktion aktiv zu unterstützen. Bittet diese insbesondere auch, an unseren
Aktionen
( http://www.markengrabbing.de/aktionen.htm )
teilzunehmen und "ein Zeichen zu setzen"!
Hierfür möchte ich schon jetzt jedem von euch danken.


Also, bis später
Euer
Thorsten Hassiepen

        "Dear Sir,

This is not true, the only thing that has happened is,
that iwin has contacted us with this request.
However, we have not even had a first meeting  to
discuss this possibility.

Kind regards,

Jetzt wird's spannend: Wie ermittelt ein Hardwaredesigner
unter 37 Leuten einen echten Zufallstreffer? Ganz einfach:
Chip werfen! (Münze werfen war gestern :-)). Bei jedem Wurf
wird das Intervall halbiert, bei Schriftseite wird's das
obere Intervall, bei Lötseite das Untere. Bis zur ein-
deutigen Bestimmung eines Namens wird mit genauen Brüchen
gerechnet, Beschwerden bezüglich des Verfahrens bitte nach
NIL:.

[1..37]
Wurf: Lötseite, damit sind nur noch
[1..19] im Rennen.
Wurf: Lötseite, damit reduziert es sich auf:
[1..10]
Wurf: Schriftseite, und es sind nur noch
[5,5..10] im Rennen.
Wurf: Schriftseite, und es gibt nur noch vier Leute:
[7,75..10]
Wurf: Lötseite, und es wird spannend unter zwei Leuten:
[7,75..8,875]
Wurf: Schriftseite, damit haben wir einen Gewinner:
[8,3125..8,875]

es ist Nummer 8:

 fritz.trampnau@okay.net

Der Gewinner ist bereits per e-mail benachrichtigt.

Und: Es geht weiter, jetzt geht es in die zweite Runde, es
gilt den endgültigen Namen auszuwählen. Dafür hat Petra ein
Poll-Script auf der Seite installiert. Wer übrigens versucht
zu schummeln (also mehrere Stimmen abzugeben), wird vom
Script erkannt und nicht nochmal gezählt, es wird also eine
wirklich repräsentative Umfrage!
