`25.Mar.2007` AROS-Exec (Webseite)	AROS-Exec : Call for wall-papers Due to a certain need for new Wanderer backgrounds, everyone is invited to the official "Call for wall-papers" at AROS-Exec. The wallpapers should be placed in the AROS-Exec gallery and should have a minimal size of 800x600, images in multiple resolutions would be best. Since there is no resizing of wallpapers supported in Wanderer, the image content might be aligned to the upper left corner, so using a 1024x786 background image in a 800x600 resolution would not cut any logos or sensitive parts. All images must be released under APL and must not contain any foreign copyrighted materials! The competition deadline is May 31st, after which a poll will be starting to nominate the winning image. This will be set as the default desktop background in the nightly builds. (snx) [News message: 25. Mar. 2007, 10:39] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version]

`23.Mar.2007` IOSPIRIT GmbH (ANF)	IOSPIRIT GmbH quits the Amiga market Press release IOSPIRIT GmbH ends its Amiga business on the 1st of April 2007. In the future, IOSPIRIT GmbH will be focusing solely on its Mac® products. In order to better serve the needs of that market and to be able to process incoming orders faster and more efficiently, a reimplementation of the shop system is currently being worked on. The reasons for the decision to no longer operate in the Amiga market are as follows: We want to fully commit to developing Mac® products in the future The big additional overhead that would be necessary to integrate (permanent) support for download and package versions of Amiga software into the new concept and the drawbacks that would come with this for the majority of our customers - which today are Mac® users The decreasing demand for Amiga products and the the situation of the Amiga market in general IOSPIRIT's own Amiga titles will no longer be available beyond April, 1st, 2007 - except of course for remaining stock at dealers. The future distribution as well as development and support of IBrowse will be handled directly by the IBrowse development team. You can find their website at ibrowse-dev.net. Many thanks go to All of our customers and users for being loyal for so many years, which has made the development of our Amiga titles possible in the first place; All developer and scene buddies for the many interesting, reflective, funny, educational, helpful and amicable moments, anecdotes and experiences; All those, who have always been there to help with mental and moral support and an independant, second opinion. We wish all of you all the best for the future and would be happy to see you again over in the Mac® market. If you are interested in what we are currently working on, you can find our Mac® products at iospirit.com. Sincerly, Felix Schwarz (snx) [News message: 23.
