Firefox-Port: Status-Update for Timberwolf
Thomas Frieden has published a new status update for the Firefox port "Timberwolf". He wrote:

"I haven't posted a progress report for a few weeks. This is not because there was nothing new, but the news are mostly "boring": Fixing bugs, implementing some missing features and so on.
One feature worth mentioning is that Timberwolf will now adapt to the color scheme of your workbench. That means it will use the GUI prefs colors for it's user interface drawing and this will be a big step towards making it feel more like an Amiga application.
Stay tuned for more news in the coming days." (cg) (Translation: dr)

AROS: Workbench replacement Scalos ported
Matthias Rustler has ported the Workbench replacement Scalos to AROS. Because Scalos requires DOS-packages, the port is only available for AROS-systems with the ABI-V1 binary interface.

In a statement on aros-exec.org the author explained the problems which still exists: Drag'n Drop as well as the "Lasso" for choosing several icons do not work. The AROS-icons do not look very nice because the format of the pictogramm is still not supported. Additionally the content of a directory is not listed. Then simply choose "update" from the menu list. (cg) (Translation: dr)
