Golem: The end of the GIF-Patent
burnallgifs.org
20 June 2003: The LZW patent expires today in the United States.
However, patents on LZW are still in force in other countries.
Please continue to refrain from using GIFs. More importantly, do
not allow your communications to be censored by the whims of
patent holders. Things you can do:
- Oppose the expansion of software patents to your country, if such
patents are not available there now.
- Insist that standards bodies in which you participate make an an
"innovation compatible" (IC) license a requirement for any patents
needed to implement a standard.
- Develop and support software that works with non-patented file
formats and network protocols, instead of patent-encumbered ones.
Sign the petition against software patents in Europe.
PNG-Tips for Cartoonists
Hackles writes:
In short, PNG combines (and improves upon) the best qualities of GIF
and JPEG, and can effectively replace GIFs on the Web. So why don't
people use it more often? Here are some tips on how to use it correctly.
I wrote this article to encourage cartoonists to start using PNG, and
to share some tips on exploiting PNG's strengths. Used correctly, PNG
can drastically reduce the file size and download time of one's comics.

Multimedia Authoring System: Malibu Version 1.0
Malibu 1.0 - the Scala plugin for Hollywood - is out now. When Malibu is
installed, Hollywood will suddenly be able to display your Scala presentations.
The compatibility is very high. You can run almost every Scala script. In
24-bit of course and absolutely RTG friendly! You can even compile your
Scala presentations to AmigaOS executables or native MorphOS executables!
A truly unique feature! Malibu is available in a version for AmigaOS3 as well
as in a native MorphOS PPC version. Malibu requires at least Hollywood 1.5
and can be ordered in a discounted bundle together with the Hollywood 1.5
update or the Hollywood 1.5 full version.

Amiga Arena: Interview with AmiS (eNote, Visual Guide)
More than a year ago Olaf Köbnik approached Russian developer "AmiS" to talk
about his tools such as "eNote" and "Visual Guide". Now he could find the time
and you can read about his future plans and whether we may count on updates for
his programs so far in the interview.
