Encyclopedia mentiones the Amiga
The "Multimedia-Encyclopedia 2002", which can be purchased at Aldi (German
discounter), is reading about the Amiga:
»Amiga
Home computer developed in the 80th by the company Amiga, then distributed
by Commodore with Motorola processors. Popular home computers of the Amiga line
are the models Amiga 500 and Amiga 1000. More efficient versions of the Amiga
also could be utilized for more challenging projects (Amiga 2000 and Amiga 4000).
Amiga was taken over by the German trade chain Escom, then by the US company
Viscorp, and finally by the company Amino, but though several announcements
were made no new Amiga products were launched, so far.« (ps) (Translation: mj)

AGC failed
Unfortunately there has not been much interest in my attempt to found the AGC (Amiga Guide Community). I intended to create a common basis for all those who like to work with the AmigaGuideFormat. I was also going to create a website which should have contained all publications of the AmigaGuideFormat that have been ever written.
Some of the active AmigaGuide writer answered very pleased but nobody could help me realizing the project so I stopped it in summer 2001.
Up to now I did not have the time to publish this sad message. Sad because the AmigaGuideFormat is underestimated of most of the Amiga users although it is used very often. However, maybe there is somebody who is interested in. I still have not thrown away my notices of this project.

Text viewer: EvenMore Updates
New updates in the EvenMore archive.
Now when you search for text using the search files function, you
can double click a file in the list to open it at the place where your
match was found (Only for plain text files though). Fixed a bug in the
new colour setup, EvenMore would sometimes loose other colours when
getting new ones. You will need to reconfigure your EvenMore config
file. Also fixed an enforcer hit when closing the window, was freeing
the gadgets twice ;/.
Alfred Vaust has also created a deutsch catalog for EvenMore,
along with a template for creating new catalogs and a catalog compile
script for users to create their own catalogs easily. (ps)

- Bugfix: Port- and cx_priority arguments were not
observed.
- New: Documentation extended with more FAQ entries.
"zvnc" is a small
VNC-Client
without display support (for controlling a second machine with monitor).
The advantage of "zvnc" are a minimum of data to be send via the network,
because the graphics data are not applied. That makes control by mouse and
keyboard very straight.
The archive contains versions for AmigaOS 2.x / 3.x, and MorphOS.

Telepolis: Lifelong imprisonment becaus of distribution of unused machine time?
In this article Birgitte Zarzer reports about the system administrator David McOwen,
who provided unused machine time of several computers of the University of Georgia to
distributed.net, and thereby catched harshly
trouble in return. He will face court in January and possibly will catch very long
lasting imprisonment.
There are also many Amiga users helping distributed.amiga.org
to crack the RC5 key. This worldwide competition is about to crack a 64bit key by calculating all of the
18.4 trillons of possibilities. One can provide unused computing capabilities of the own machine for this
matter by using some specified software.
In case you are utilizing "foreign" machines for this, after reading this article you appear to be adviced
to raise a written permission.

against bugs. In the last few weeks we added a whole new type of game
play to it -- missions. Basically, if you accept, and fulfill a mission,
you get a reward during the game. Missions range from defeating a certain
lord, to rescuing damsels, etc. Rewards can be additional gold, soldiers,
and more. It plays very nice and adds a whole new dimension to the tried
and tested original Defender game play.

Update 31. December 2001:
Kilian Servais, issuer of the APC&TPC disk magazine NoCover (German) wrote to the German comments on this article:
Hi!
Dissolving of the club in deed is not that tragical, because the only service, which alwas has been taken consequently, was the NoCover. Meantime this became freeware and everybody, who would like to, can registert to the email distribution list free of charge - just send an email to kilian@apc-tcp.de!
In the times of Internet and email a club, like the APC&TCP has been, only makes sense in a very limited way, anyway, cause the Community will stay alive in any case. All users without Internet account can get the NoCover on floppy disk, as well. Due to the club dissolving the yearly charge slipps, but though we will try to offer as much services as possible.
So, at heart dissolving of the club is no step back but a step forward. The NoCover can get well as freeware, Andreas can concentrate on the Future (German Amiga games magazine), etc., etc.. So people: We'll keep at it!! What ever may come!!

Audio: RAPlay update (support of Realmedia streams)
The well-known audiostream player RAPlay has been released in the final version 3.0
and is available for download at the title link. Also, the player will appear soon
on Aminet.
What's interesting about this player is not only the support of RealAudio 1-2 streams
but now also the support of RealMedia in the codec versions 1, 2 and 3.

Phone costs: TTimeDeluxe version 3.19
With TTimeDeluxe you can keep track of your online costs. This update
of version 3.18 to 3.19 makes TTimeDeluxe ready for the Euro. The
switch to Euro should not be made before 01.01.2001 or there may be
rounding errors otherwise. TTime is now Freeware.
IMPORTANT: TTime just changes the currency name and updates
the TTime logfile. You'll have to change the prices in the preferences and
the saved projects yourself.

Telepolis: Mail for you!
An initiative wants to retaliate upon AOL - they return one million CDs
to sender.
In his article Torsten Kleins talks about the return of one million AOL CDs
planned by Nomoreaolcds from a
completely different point of view.
»Christmas is the time for giving. Our cupids get extensively packed
presents from indoctrinated salespersons, donation collectors leave houses
with filled collecting boxes, even postmen and garbagemen - sorry: post deliverers
and garbage technicians become the target of our lordliness.
But there are only a few companies as involved with the latter two professional guilds
as AOL is. What the fist one puts into our postpoxes in exhausting legwork the second one
comes to pick it up shortly after: AOL CDs. It is the time to say thank you to the
friendly provider from America. Let us send a parcel to AOL.«

Individual Computers: xsurfadsl.device Snowflake-Bugfix
A new update of the PPPoE-driver for our networking card X-Surf can be
found in the support-area of our website. The last bug in the core
routines has been removed, so a connection to the internet is stable
at full transfer rates for several hours. Since this version has only
been tested shortly, it remains in beta state. The archive contains
an English readme file for the first time.
The driver is free for owners of the X-Surf ethernet card. It lets
you connect to DSL and cable modem services that use the
PPPoE-standard without the need to buy expensive additional software.
In Germany DSL is marketed as T-DSL by the Deutsche Telekom, but
smaller providers like 1&1, Hansenet and some local services also
offer this broadband technology.
We want to remind our German customers of the new terms and
conditions at the Telekom: If you order DSL before January 1st,
you'll get the DSL modem for free. After that, you'll have to
pay 119,95 EUR for the modem! (ps)
