The OOP4A-Project joins forces with PowerD and WizardClasses
"The OOP4A-Project joins forces with PowerD and WizardClasses"
"Stefan Robl, author of OS 3.9's AmiDock, has agreed to support the
OOP4A project by providing his class system 'WizardClasses' which is
extensively used in all of his programs. The class system also
contains - among many other classes - a GUI class system. We hope to
release a first package sometime in Q1, 2002 - this will enable programs
using OOP4A to use GUI in a truly object oriented way as well.
Martin Kuchinka, author of the PowerD programming language, agreed
too to support the OOP4A-Project within PowerD.

Amiga board elects Frank Wilde as Chairman of the Board (update)
Update:
Carsten Schröder of Amiga Aktuell
explains in a special the following terms:
"First of all for clarification: in American companies the "chairman" is the head
of the "Board of Directors", some sort of administrative council which is elected
by the company shareholders and decides on the basic company politics as well
as announcing the "Executive Officers" who are responsible for daily business.
Thus the chairman has - at least formally - a higher influence as for example the
CEO (Chief Executive Officer) of a company."
