AMIGAworld (Twitter) GitHub project: Amiga 4000 accelerator board 'Z3660'
On GitHub the developer 'shanshe' has started a project for the Amiga 4000 accelerator board 'Z3660' which is based on John "Chucky" Hertell's A3660 board as well as the Z-turn Board. In contrast to the A3660 (currently) only 060 CPU are supported. If Z-turn FPGA is not used, then you get a simple A3660. The only difference is that all A3660 PLDs are replaced by a XC95144XL-TQ144 CPLD. If you use a Z-turn FPGA, then you can add 128 MB of CPU RAM (more RAM, RTG, AHI, USB, SCSI are planned in the future). (dr)

MorphOS: QR-Code generator 'QRCodeLab'
MorphOS developer Frank Mariak has released a MUI tool called 'QRCodeLab' which can be used to easily create QR codes and afterwards copying them to the Clipboard or saving them as pictures. We have tested the tool using our Amiga-News website: Working!

As the author wrote, "currently, it only supported encoding to UTF8 and non of the other compressed formats like numeric and/or alphanumeric are supported to reduce the code size. It dynamically adjusts the QRCode version based on the length of string."
If you have any suggestions or ideas for improvement, please feel free to contact the author via mail. (dr)
