Workbench replacement: X-bEnCH 0.73 (beta version)
X-bEnCH is an Amiga game launcher with 128 colors on screen (even on a simple A500). This frontend autoscans the harddisk to find WHDLoad games or .exe files and and organizes them into launching listings. X-bEnCh also has an integrated CLI fully compatible with the Workbench CLI feature.
Version 0.73 is a bugfix release:
- Fixed the display speed problem on little cpu (68000/68010) in the menu
- Fixed the display speed problems on high end cpu (68040/68060) in the menu and the launcher
- Fixed a bad multitasking management when launching an .exe file

AROS: Distribution AspireOS 1.95
Nikolaos Tomatsidis released a new version of his AROS distribution AspireOS. It is made for the Acer netbook Aspire One, but does also fully support the Toshiba notebook Satellite Pro A200; also on other hardware the distribution should run, but this is untested.
Changes include a Wifi scanning tool, the editor Annotate, an AmigaOS 3.1 theme, new wallpapers, an optimisation of the boing icon bar and a bugfix for downloading Youtube videos. This time there is no update option for existing systems available, though, instead a fresh installation of version 1.95 is recommended. (snx)

Multi-purpose tool: Jack 3.2.5
Jack is a multi-purpose utility for all Amiga systems. Besides basic file operations Jack features image editing, saving screenshots, a music player, AppStore functions, weather forecast, currency conversion and a diary with connection to the Google diary.
Changes in version 3.2.5:
- AmigaOS 4.1 Update 5's introduction of asynchronously loading the TCP/IP at Workbench startup exposed a new bug in Jack. The DELAY tooltype was previously being ignored, this has now been fixed. If you still see an error message if starting Jack this way simply increase the value of the DELAY tooltype. Value is no. of seconds
- Python ITC Extractor has been updated to version 0.3.2 which adds support for Apple's use of ARGB images in album cover artwork. Thanks to Simon Kennedy
- Moved php scripts to another server, older versions of Jack will continue to run for a limited time only

Amiga Inc.: Bill McEwen's name spotted at BlackBerry live demo
After the official Amiga Inc. press release on availability of classic Amiga games for the BlackBerry tablet PlayBook and the upcoming smartphone BlackBerry 10 (amiga-news.de reported), a video of this cell phone's live presentation has been discovered which supports the claim of a business relationship.
At the title link, Bill McEwen's name has been spotted as a contact person on the phone. Although the corresponding photo does not depict the longtime CEO - allegedly it is the junior -, the entry is titled "Amiga". At minute 4:41 a virtual customer meeting can be seen and at minute 6:16 there are OSNews articles about Amiga from June/July. (snx)

MorphOS: Sudominator 1.1 and U1Synth 1.2
Grzegorz 'Krashan' Kraszewski has updated two of his programs - the Sudoku solver Sudominator and the software synthesizer U1Synth. Both can be also installed by Grunch now.
Sudominator had some problem with new MUI 4 transparency effect for disabled gadgets. This effect has been unnecessarily applied to the sudoku field when live solver was running, so the whole thing was unreadable. U1Synth has got an octave switch, a first small step towards changing it from a toy to a simple, yet usable synthesizer. (snx)

AmigaOS 4: Dragon-/Tandy-Emulator XRoar 0.28.1
XRoar ported by Ventzislav Tzvetkov emulates the 8-Bit-systems Dragon and Tandy TRS-80 Color Computer. A minimal firmware is included in the archive but for the real compatibility the ROM-image of the emulated computers is required.

defined lists with -romlist-print
- Similarly, allow user to specify ROM CRC32s that are equivalent with
-crclist, printing current list with -crclist-print
- Use ROM CRCs to determine which breakpoints are effective
- Force CRC matching (breakpoints only based on arch) with -force-crc-match
- Add -tape-write option to specify an output tape file on the command line
- Add -type option to type a string into BASIC
- Permit incomplete last tracks in JVC disk images
- Removed GP32 and NDS support from main tree
- Remove obsolete GTK+ version 1 file requester
- Test for and use GLib list and hash functions if available
- Data bus state updated during NVMA (fixes Manic Miner protection)
- -tape-pad-auto leader thresholds updated
- CPU fixes: verified flags set/cleared in SEX and DAA instructions
- Tape fixes: various usability fixes
- VDK files: fill in header bytes more completely when writing
- SAM-VDG interaction fix - 48 byte-per-line mode now works
- More resilient fast tape loading
