Windows: ADTWin 1.2
ADTWin is a programm which unter Windows can write Amiga disks (amiga-news.de reported) to use the content of ADF-files on real Amigas. Changes in version 1.2:
- Support for parallel port PCI cards
- Automatic deactivation of Windows' "warm polling" mechanism (which can disrupt ADTWin's write operation)
- Drag&Drop support
- Bug fix: With some floppy drives (e.g. MITSUMI D359T5) there was a problem when moving the read/write head too early after selecting the drive, resulting in corrupt disks, although no errors were reported

NES-remake: "Solomon's Key 2"
"hukka" has released an remake of the NES-game Solomon's Key 2 / Fire'n Ice for classic Amigas. The game has been written in assembly and should run on any PAL-Amiga.
You can play Solomon's key using keyboard or joystick. The second fire button can be used to access the ingame menu. Some features of the NES-game have been not implemented ('Castle' levels and other levels with lava floor/scrolling/moving enemies have been replaced with custom levels), but a level editor is included.

AmigaOS 4: 8-Bit-Emulator Atari++ 1.73
Atari++ emulates Atari's 8-Bit home computer as well as the games console Atari 5200. The port for AmigaOS-4 was written by Ventzislav 'drHirudo' Tzvetkov, supports AmigaInput and can be controlled using joysticks or analog controllers.
Changes:
- Added emulation support for the tape drive, and .CAS files loaded into the
tape. Raw audio files in the .WAV format are not supported by the emulator
directly, but two external programs "wav2cas" and "cas2wav" can convert
between them.
- Added an additional rendering mode for the X11 video system of Linux
machines. Instead of drawing the emulated screen on the display rectangle by
rectangle, the "xvideo" mode uses the xv extension of X11 to render into an
off-screen memory which is then merged into the screen by the video overlay
mechanis of the hardware. This rendering mode may create a smoother display
and may improve performance on lower end hardware, but is not necessarily
available everywhere.
- A complete manual of Os++, including a memory map, is now available as
download.
- Included the Os++ system disk, including disk-based utilities around Os++
including a Dos overlay manager that relocates Dos buffers behind the
cartridge, an RS232 handler, an updated version of DISKIO, a disk-based
tape handler, a menu based DUP and a lot of tools.

Cloanto confirms transfers of Commodore/Amiga copyrights
In the last few months, Cloanto started distributing Amiga System Software - the publisher traditionally refers to it as "Workbench" instead of "AmigaOS" - on CF cards, Floppy Disks and as a downloadable Workbench Disk Image Pack. Approached by Amiga-News, Cloanto's Michael Battilana confirmed that the company owns the copyrights for all works created by the Commodore/Amiga companies up to 1993.
The deal was finished in 2012, as Battilana states: "We already had licenses from some older agreements with various parties, including Gateway and Amiga Inc., which in part were exclusive. The transfer of these copyrights to Cloanto was then completed with new agreements a few years ago."
The combination of the multiple agreements makes Cloanto the rights holder of not just any Amiga related products and media, but also the system software, documentation, Commodore-owned publications, videos and advertisements for Commodore's various product lines.
As it turns out, back in 1997, ESCOM
had assigned all former Commodore/Amiga copyrights to Gateway - not just the Amiga-related ones - and they were handed over to every new IP owner since then. Only the "Commodore" trademarks (but not
any patents, nor any copyrights) were sold to Tulip Computers in 1997.
A look at the database of the US Copyright Office confirms Battilana's statements: The items in the list of titles are now assigned to Cloanto.
Note from the editor: While Cloanto's agreements, according to Battilana, cover everything created by Commodore/Amiga up to 1993, not all of
the copyrighted works are listed in the public database. Like most publishers, Commodore did not deposit everything with every new release. As the US Copyright Office explains, registration is voluntary, and not required for protection. Advantages that
come with registration include the availability to copyright owners of statutory damages and attorney's fees in case of court actions.
An overview of the ownership of the Amiga-related IP
Ownership of Amiga-related intellectual property became more fragmented
in the last few years. As far as we know, this is the current list of parties owning parts of it:
Amiga Inc. owns the domain name amiga.com as well as all remaining Amiga-related trademarks (partial list, PDF). They do have a license from
Cloanto for their activities on the BlackBerry platform, but no license for any other platforms.
Hyperion Entertainment, recently declared bankrupt, has a license to modify and distribute AmigaOS 3.1, an exlusive license for the AmigaOS and AmigaOne trademarks (limited for use with AmigaOS 4 or higher) and a non-exclusive license for the BoingBall trademark (limited for use with AmigaOS 4 or higher). Hyperion's license can only be transferred to a third party with Amiga Inc.'s consent.
Cloanto owns the Amiga Forever and Workbench trademarks and the copyrights to the Commodore/Amiga works as described above.
The status of AmigaOS 3.5/3.9
AmigaOS 3.5/3.9 were developed and distributed by Haage&Partner, under
license from Amiga. As far as we know, said license has expired by now (and
was even revoked prematurely in OS 3.9's case), meaning that there's no party holding the complete rights to these releases at the moment.
Individual modules that were part of OS 3.5 or 3.9 have been rereleased in the meantime as part of both Cloanto's Workbench 3.X distribution (included with Amiga Forever) and AmigaOS 4.
Small Updates for AmigaOS 3.1
In the latter half of the nineties, Heinz Wrobel and Olaf Barthel released several Updates for AmigaOS 3.1 via Amiga's website. These updates have been made available in Cloanto's download area a while ago. (cg)

AROS / MorphOS: Bounty-Project for Qt 4.8 replaced by Qt 5.4 (Update)
The description of the bounty for adapting the C++ class library Qt (amiga-news.de reported) to AROS, which Szilárd 'BSzili' Biró would accept, has been changed to the current version 5.4 due to a lack of interest of potential donors.
Nevertheless, Szilárd Biró is going to adapt Qt 4 because he himself requires this version. The donors of the original bounty project have been informed and can give their money for a different project or can get it back.
Update: (08:10, 26.01.15, snx)
On Szilárd Biró's request, MorphOS has been added to the bounty. (snx) (Translation: dr)

Game developer received warning for Backbone game with smurf characters
On January 1st, Mikael 'Hipoonios' Persson did release his game Smurf Rescue created with Backbone under a Freeware licence. Five days ago he received an e-Mail from the law office Gevers, which in behalf of the rightholder of the smurfs named Studio Peyo requested to immediately shut down the website and to pay 500 Euro of lawyer’s fees. A three days deadline was set. Otherwise further steps will be taken.
According to Persson he does not check his e-mails on regular basis. Therefore he got the claim - sent to the mail account specified as contact address for the domain hipooniosamigasite.org - after the expiration of the deadline. Meanwhile he also received a letter which included a claim of 2000 Euro. Persson has published screenshots of parts of his e-mail traffic as well as of the admission of guilt which he is supposed to sign:
Persson's version of the details is extremely fragmentary. Currently it is not possible to reconstruct the complete communication between him and the law office Gevers. If his version of the details will be confirmed, at least according to German law the questionable warning may be legally skilful - although it suggests that the law office might use warnings as business model.
Because recently several Amiga games have been offered or announced which use Intellectual Property of big media companies ("Danger Mouse", "Evil Minions"), the developers as a precaution should reconsider it - there is not any kind of legal protection for non-commercial products.

Event: "Amiga 30 Years" in Amsterdam (27.06.2015)
In 2015 the Amiga celebrates its 30th anniversary. Initially an anniversary celebration was planned in the Heinz Nixdorf Forum, in Paderborn (Germany) which was supposed to be take place simultaneously with a similar event in USA. But Jens Schönfeld (Individual Computers) and his team have very little free time so the planning is not in an advanced stage.
For an event on June 27th in Amsterdam, a team of Dutch Amiga users have invited notable guests: Dave Haynie, David Pleasance (Commodore UK) as well as some former games developers (Christian Bartsch, István Fábián, Franck Sauer) have been announced.
The Kryoflux team will also attend the event and create disk images of disks brought along for free. Additionally there will be an exhibition as well as further interesting surprises which will be announced during the next weeks and months.
The team of the PPC-extension Ultimate PPC will be there as well and present its hardware - still it is not clear, what will be presented: On the website of the event it was written "the brand new Amiga expansion card released by its creators" while a post in a forum offers the prospect: "Talk to the developers, look at the card, touch it, smell it."

Christian 'lallafa' Vogelgsang's plipbox helps low-end classic Amigas connecting to a network. Linked to the parallel port, the Arduino-based adapter provides a connection to the Ethernet-port of the Arduino board. The magPLIP-protocol is used.
In version 0.6 a new parallel burst transfer mode was added which "really improves the I/O speed on this Amiga port". You can find some performance numbers of this mode under the title link.

The demo includes two levels and requires a 68030-processor with 50 MHz, 2 MB RAM and 10 MB free space on harddrive. For users of WinUAE it is recommended to enable the option "immediate Blitter".
