AmigaOS 4: Free Pascal updated
In 2004 Karoly 'Chain-Q' Balogh ported the compiler Free Pascal to MorphOS and two years later for the first time adapted it to AmigaOS 4. Based on Marcus 'ALB42' Sackrow's version of Free Pascal for AROS, MorphOS and AmigaOS 3.x he has adapted the latest version for AmigaOS 4. Completed by Marcus Sackrow the compiler now is available for all platforms.
Karoly Balogh himself does not use the version for AmigaOS 4, therefore he asks all users to try it and give feedback.

ReWarp: Reimplementation of WarpOS for AmigaOS 4 in progress
Under the title link Dennis van der Boon (well-known by his SonnetAmiga project) is working on a reimplementation of WarpOS for AmigaOS 4. The goal of "ReWarp" (screenshot) is to make it possible runing WarpOS-programms under PowerPC computers which are supported by the WarpOSEmu.
A supporter of the project mentioned the PowerPC cores e500, e5500 and 4x0 - that means the processors of the AmigaOne X5000 as well as of the Sam460 and of the Tabor-board.

Amicast: Interview with Toni Wilen
In the blog of the English podcast Amicast an interview with Toni Wilen has been published. He is well-known for the development of the Amiga emulator WinUAE but has also written file manager FileMaster.
In the interview he mainly talked about the WinUAE and his future plans: Adding missing expansion cards, improving the compatibility, using of several emulated graphic cards simultaneously and emulating the micro controller 4510 (CDTV-CR) which controls the communication with the front-LCD. For the emulation of the controller he asks for ROMs. For further details please have a look at the WinUAE main page.
