Paolo Besser who is the author of the AROS-distribution Icaros could convince Ross Vumbaca by donating some money to publish his Soundblaster 128-driver under the AROS Public License. Vumbacca himself will port the driver to AROS.
With the driver AROS-installations, which run under the virtual environment VMware, could use sound output.

AmigaOS 4: AmigaAMP 3.3
The third generation of AmigaAMP written by Thomas Wenzel is available PPC-native for AmigaOS 4 in version 3.3. Changes:
- Fixed colour palette of the analyzer for the included Base-Skin
- "Default" file name pattern added
- AsyncIO-support to Libsndfile added
- Tag-Info window title shows complete file path
- New prefs-editor
The author wrote: "Finally there is a new prefs-editor! Thanks to Daniel Jedlicka who has written him!
If in the prefs-programm the file name pattern is set to "default", AmigaAMP selects the best fitting pattern for the file requester. Therefore it is not necessary any longer to manually adapt the pattern for each new release. Of course you can overwrite the pattern by another one.
AmigaAMP 3 now can use the asyncio.library for all decoders. But this option is turned off and cannot be turned on with the prefs-programm. Instead you have to set the tooltype to ASYNCIO in the pictogramm."

iBatch: Image2Icon user-interface
Gero von Birkenfeld wrote: The Image2Icon-GUI is a frontend for the Image2Icon-Shell-command (Aminet). Image2Icon-GUI can be used as stand-alone programm or as "Plugin" for iBatch 1.2 (Screenshot).
I do not call it image2icon-plugin any longer but "image2icon-capsule". An iBatch-plugin does not require further software. "Capsule" is meant to be an extended GUI-frontend for existing Shell-commands. With Image2Icon-GUI you can create preview icons for any picture directory.
Features
- Saving preview pictures as icons
- Black icon-fringe
- Glow-effect
- "Printing" image solution on the icon
Image2Icon-GUI only can be downloaded from the iBatch website under the title link. Since there are a lot of useful Shell-based graphic commands, further frontends (capsules) for iBatch will follow. iBatch 1.3 - which probably will be published at the end of August - will include the capsule "jhead" (transfering EXIF-data to converted JPG-files).
