    IRC-Server runs on Amiga 500 :-) 
I've just noticed that the information text of the EFnet IRC server irc.gigabell.de
says: "Running on AmigaOS, Kick 1.3". If you want to see it yourself, just log
into this IRC server of the Gigabell AG and have a look at your Whois.

    New beta version (V.45.00 beta 4) of stormamiga.lib V.45.00 for StormC 
After a long time there's a new version of stormamiga.lib as a Christmas
gift from Matthias Henze. The most important improvements in this version
are certainly the new, very fast and exact math functions for the MC68040
and MC68060. Other function were also rewritten from the scratch up. Furthermore,
there are many optimizations and some bugfixes.

    Amiga Extreme takes a break 
«Amiga Extreme will be closing for a while. This is because I feel
that I don't have the motivation to continue the site, and the fact that there's almost
nothing to post, I don't see much of a point in updating. There are better sites for that
(Amiga.org and Czech Amiga News for example).

    Heise: Background details: Microsoft are Stricken 
«Crippled due to the cartel case, tantalized by cracker's attacks, and trailed by the general
downwards trend of the PC branch the software giant from Redmond now starts to paddle hectically.
Because the signs are indicating storm: For the first time after ten years and for the second time
in the company's history at all Microsoft had to call out a profit caution for the current quarter.
PC sales in the otherwise so opulent Christmas business are stagnating worldwide, thus the best
income source stops bubbling the way Bill Gates' crew was used to. After all, almost a third of volume of
sales Microsoft draws from the fact that vendors sell PC's along with Windows or other products by Microsoft.»

Today we received a new 'lame' trojan. This trojan will only execute
 it self if you have named your hard-disk "DH0" & "DH1".  The trojan
 is spread in  and archive with  the name "DKG-BLUM.LHA". If you run
 the  "DKG-BLUM.exe",  the trojan  will replace  your c:loadwb  with
 another loadwb (size: 3560 bytes) and replace c:assign with another
 assign (size: 2408 bytes),  and the screen will tell you that there
 is not enough memory,  and you will have  to restart, then it looks
 like the trojan will delete DH1:. 
 The trojan also  adds or replaces 2 other files, "LIBS:asi.library"
 & "DEVS:ASI.device".

    MUI: NListtree V18.6 Beta 5 
Carsten Scholling released beta version V18.6 Beta 5 of the MUI class 'NListtree'. This
class displays data in a tree structure. For this time the update contains bugfixes and
useful enhancements.
 
-  Bugfix: Multiselection bug fixed, which allowed entries to be dropped on thier children entries (crash!)
 
- Bugfix: Position calculation rewritten. No more accidently deleted entries.
 
- Bugfix: Drop-Typ "Sorted" never occured
 
- Bugfix: Renaming the user field wasn't possible.
 
- Bugfix: MUIV_NListtree_Insert_ListNode_ActiveFallback (see Autodocs).
 
- Bugfix: Inserting open nodes into one closed leaded to wrong position calculation (reported by Luca 'Hexaae' Longone, thx)
 
- New: Second find method implemented (user field). This searching function is rather meant as a backup to have different
searching possibilities, if needed. (Hooks must not always be set again).
 
- New: MUIA_NListtree_ShowTree implemented (tree on / off). Useful for different sorting orders for which a tree structure maybe
isn't wanted.
 
- New: Spanish localisation by Javier de las Rivas.
 
- New: New Trigger-Attribute: MUIA_NListtree_SelectChange.

On December 15th, 2000 Bernd Bernie Meyer has released a service pack for the
'Ipswich Town' version of 'UAE-JIT' for Linux/386, which is an Amiga emulator.
This Update in general fixes bugs of the previous version. Particulary it was
made more stabel, and portable while speed did not change. So this update in
general addresses those who had problems with the previous version in using
or compiling it. A detailed list of changes made are to find in the
WHATSNEW-JIT-Text.

    New InstallerNG 
I have uploaded a new version of InstallerNG to the support page (and to Aminet).
A stupid bug in the message system of the built-in BOOPSI GUI has been fixed, and
new is the CALL-PLUGIN function which allows the user to implement own functions
in InstallerNG by a typed API and to use it from a script. Example source code for
this as well as for all of the other API modules are included.

    Heise: Competitor to Microsoft's new Video Format 
«3ivx is to be made available for every platform as there are Windows,
Macintosh, BeOS, Linux, Amiga, and other. A related player is planned as open source
project. Already for now there exists a delta version 1.0d1 of the 3ivx decoder for
MacOS Classic and Windows at the download area of the 3ivix pages. To play the example
videos Apple-Player from version QuickTime 4.0 is needed. Initial tries to use this
decoder with the QuickTime player under Windows leaded to less successful results -
the format wasn't recognized.»

    Bonds v1.78 BETA3 with New Homepage 
Sven Droege wrote: 
The users of the financial software Bonds had to count on long waitstates for
updates. Since today there's a new homepage under the known address
www.programmed-excellence.de
online. Through a server change the access probabily should be improved
drastically. Besides that there's a new update v1.78 BETA3, which only contains
some small bugfixes. Additionally for registered users there's now the tool
"quotations updater", that can be used to update quotations also without Bonds.

    EASys! Update 4.8.4 and bugfix with OS 3.9 
The update to version 4.8.4 of EASys! will be ready for 20.12.2000 at the
latest. User who bought the 4.8.4 CD-R package at the fair in Cologne don't
need that update anymore. But following things should be arranged with 4.8.4
CD-R package so OS 3.9 runs completely.
 
- rename the file EASys!:config/OS39_with_toolsdaemon to OS39_with_rexxmenu
 
- in file SYS:StartSys/e_WB/2_Toolbar (or 2_ToolManager_EASys) add one line
before the startup of the toolmanager:
 wait 10 this is required because
an asynchron simultaneous start of AmiDock and ToolManager causes a bug.

    New Sample-Set for WormsDC 
Since Hyperion are taking their time for "Worms Armageddon" for the Amiga, I
have created a new sample-set with up to 90% of German samples for the old
"Worms - The Directors Cut" (try the "Suizid-Oma" or atomic bomb;)). This puts
the fun back into WormsDC :-). Caution: the set is approximately 3 MB large
(you need a lot of Fast-Ram to use the samples).
