MorphOS: First public beta version of the SFSDoctor
Already on the 8th of January, a first public beta version of the repair program SFSDoctor was published by Marek Szyprowski (screenshot). Here, it concerns a SelfBounty project (reported by amiga-news.de), which can still be donated to.

In the meantime, the author has worked on the graphical user interface, so that he just has the filesystem-check module in front of him, as the last component. In addition, he is looking for a graphic artist for an appropriate icon.
