MorphOS: Update of iffparse.library
The MorphOS team has published an update of the iffparse.library for MorphOS 1.4.x which can be downloaded under download.morphos-team.net or from the support-FTP-server.

The update fixes a bug concerning the work with Envoy; here the Accounts Manager could not load the user-database. The developers thank Jochen Rhein for his bug report which was very helpful for this. (snx) (Translation: dr)

File system: SFS 1.263
Jörg Strohmayer has published the newest version of the alternative file system SFS for AmigaOS 3, too:
  • Removes AmigaOS4-only memory types from de_BufMemType if not running on OS4, that way partitions configured to use an OS4-only memory type like MEMF_PRIVATE can be mounted on AmigaOS 3.x as well.
  • Removable media support was broken in 1.262, fixed.

Update (15.10.06, 2:30, cg)

Unlike originally reported, there is no new version of Remote Desktop Client available. Apparently there was a mistake when updating the website. (cg) (Translation: dr)

a1k.org: Change of server and domain move
Robert Wahnsiedler writes:  With our incrasing number of users the technical issues with our last provider were increasing also with the result, that we moved the site to a new server. The forum of a1k.org is reachable at a1k.amiga-world.de currently. During the week hopefully the old domain will be switched, too.

Also I'd like to mention tat my public email address apex[@]a1k.org is not reachable since about 2 months (one of the old provider's issues). Those who send mail to taht address didn't got a failure reply, but the messages were never passed to my account. I aplolgy for any inconvenience and hope the address will work again from next week on. (cg) (Translation: ub)

Individual Computers: Clone-A - a reimplementation of the Amiga custom chips
In an exclusive interview with the British print magazine Total Amiga, which will be published in the next issue, Jens Schönfeld of Individual Computers reveals his latest project: Since about one year Jens Schönfeld and Oliver Achten are working on an exact reproduction of the Amiga chip set.

The project, currently codenamed 'Clone-A', will be publically shown at the AmiWest (21st October, USA) for the first time: to demonstrate the compatibilty of that solutionn, a normal A500 will be shown which original custom chips are replaced with Clone-A prototypes. Visitors are invited to bring their own A-500 to the show to test Clone-A.

The next issue of Total Amiga will be released after the AmiWest, therefore the editors provide a pdf with excerpts of the interview now which covers the project, its history, the curent development state and detailed photos. (cg) (Translation: ub)
