Programmer for unready MUI Gnutella client wanted
'Gnutella' is a free program which is preeminently suited to share and exchange any desired files (mp3, exe, mpeg, txt, jpg, etc.) with other users.

Until a short while ago Jay Cornwall was developing a Gnutella client for the Amiga, but now released the sources to Aminet due to lack of time. Maybe this is the way to find a programmer interested to finish this project. More information can be found under the title link. (ps) (Translation: mj)

Database: After a long time a new version of MUIbase published
After one year of a break of development there is a new version of MUIbase again which is v1.6. MUIbase is a relationale database with several datatypes and trigger-functions. The Amiga-magazine assesses MUIbase 1.2 on issue 11/99 with 87%.

The MUIbase-homepage has moved to http://www.muibase.de/ because amigaworld.com the provider till now do not work just fine. You can access the old site over http://old.muibase.de/ but which will be not updated any longer. Bit there you can still find old examples and some hints. On the new site download and registration works as usually but if there should be displaying faults then please say it to me because presently I have not an entirely working Amiga and I have no time for reinstalling. Bugfixes, ARexx-support and transactions as you know of other databases have been added. (ps) (Translation: dr)
