MorphOS: Test version of a Javascript JIT compiler for Odyssey
Mark 'bigfoot' Olsen released the test version of a PowerPC JIT compiler for Javascript to be used for Odyssey web browser. There is not much of a speed gain, though, since only the first level of the JIT is active for now. Instead the release is intended to test if there are any cases that do not work with the JIT while working without it.

Hardware: Gayle reset fix for Amiga 1200
RastPort's KA21 is a hardware Gayle reset fix for Amiga 1200. Features:
- Generates missing PCMCIA reset signal during reboot. It is needed by many PCMCIA cards to be detected by the system after reboot.
- Pins for connecting optional reset button.
- Pins for 2-way and 4-way clockport expanders. These devices need A15 (and A14 for 4-way units) signal, which is usually taken from Kickstart ROM by inserting additional socket. With KA21 these signals can be connected to two pins on the unit.
KA21 should be available from RastPort distributors at half of August.

Graphics board: Advance order of ZZ9000 (successor of VA2000)
The ZZ9000 is the successor of the FPGA-based and open source Zorro II/III compatible graphics board MNT VA2000 developed two years ago by Lukas F. Hartmann and now can be preordered.
The ZZ9000 combines a RTG graphics board, AGA scandoubler and network card equipped with two 666-MHz-ARM coprocessors for applications demanding high processing power like accelerated graphic rendering or JPEG and MP3 decoding. Besides, some of the improvements will also benefit the VA2000. The delivery is scheduled for the end of October.

This finally provides OS3 users with a state-of-the-art PDF renderer as well! For optimal speed it is recommended to use the FPU version because Polybios' PDF renderer is quite heavy on floating point arithmetics.

Commercial game: 'Worthy' is available
Andreas Rösner wrote: Pixelglass Games has released a brand new game to the Amiga community called Worthy. Similar as in real life, you have to collect diamonds to conquer the heart of your lady. You can achieve that by travelling from level to level, killing enemies, avoiding traps and collecting diamonds.
The main drive for the game character is beer which is drunken a lot to hopefully complete the adventures.

Apollo-Team: Delay of Vampire V4, Vampire 600 V2.1 being produced
Under the title link the Apollo team has announced that the release of the FPGA accelerator board Apollo V4 continues to be delayed. A single bug makes it necessary to rewrite an important part of the core. The team wrote: "Hundreds of hours have been spent on it to determine why the heck the Vampire V4 does work well on some Amiga 500 boards and not on others (despite same chips revisions). Team measured everything that could be measured (if you mind, majsta has the biggest thing we could measure) and crosschecked with all Altera manuals, and could not find a single hardware issue...the Amiga 500 is a real timing inferno. Most of us agrees that understanding women is easier than talking to an Amiga 500 chipset."
Igor 'Majsta' Majstorovic has started again the production of the Vampire 600. Some hardware components have been improved in V2.1, e.g. "better power circuitry, better caps, better socket, better cigarette smell, etc".

FastCache040+ is a patch for the 68040 and 68060.library, which replaces the functions CachePreDMA() and CachePostDMA(). The replacement functions are noticeably shorter and promise a more efficient management of the Copyback cache for the DMA. "While every system
will have some CPU performance loss under DMA conditions, the new functions keep this performance loss to a bare minimum."
