Origins and evolution of texteditors Vi and Vim
Gustavo Pezzi is a university lecturer in computer science and mathematics and runs the educational platform Pikuma. At the beginning of August, the developer of the text editor Vim, Bram Moolenaar, passed away. Pezzi had already paid his last respects to the developer in his own way in August and wrote down the history of the text editor, which is closely linked to the Amiga and which is also available in current versions for AmigaOS 4, AROS and MorphOS provided by Ola 'sodero' Söder.

Amiga Games That Weren't: Fatal Mission
As the website "Games That Weren't" reports, "Fatal Mission" was an ambitious project started by Ola Zandelin and Robert Hennings in 1993: "a cinematic style adventure in the lines of Another World, but with bitmap graphics instead of vector style one". On his website, Ola Zandelin has published some examples of this. The website "AmigaPD" conducted an interview with the developer in 2013. In it, he suggests that the game was playable to a certain extent, but it was never finished because there was a lack of time and experience to put everything together and plan it properly.
