YAM: Translations with Transifex
If you want to help to provide translations for the eMail-programm YAM then you can find a tutorial under the title link for that.

There you can find a translation in the source code - offered as PO and no longer as Amiga catalog format .ct - as well as the more simple way by using the free Transifex. You can also support translating online documents. (snx) (Translation: dr)

AmigaOS 4: MUI-port has to be registered (Update)
According to some posts, since the last update the MUI4-version of AmigaOS 4 requires to register. The authors of the port could not contact the original developer, Stefan Stuntz. Therefore they first offered MUI4 with a keyfile.

Meanwhile Stefan Stuntz, who still is active member of the MorphOS-team answered and claimed the rights to MUI. If you already have a valid MUI-key you can use it with MUI4.

Update: (12:06, 22.01.13, snx)
As mentioned by one of the authors of the AmigaOS 4 port in our german thread of comments, the previous version of MUI4 did not include a keyfile. (snx) (Translation: dr)

Jump'n Run: Full version of Putty Squad as free download
Almost 20 years ago, System 3's Putty Squad should have been released: a demo version was released on several disks of magazines and diverse British magazine did rate the game - and all of them with a high number of points.

But the final release did not follow and during the next years the game became some kind of a hidden secret for hunters of unreleased games.

With the help of the Amiga veteran "Galahad", now the Amiga version of Putty Squad was finished so far. As a Christmas gift to all Amiga fans, System 3 has made available the game on its website for free download.

Putty Squad is provided as two ADF-files and requires an AGA-Amiga. There are no plans for installing it on harddrive. Your web browser has to accept cookies otherwise the download will not work.

Ian 'Codetapper' Lightbody has interviewed Galahad. They talked about the communication with System 3 and the technical problems with finishing the game. (cg) (Translation: dr)

NetBSD: Support of expansion board ACA500
The Amiga version of NetBSD now also supports the expansion board ACA500 developed by Individual Computers. Currently only the first Compact-Flash-Slot can be used to boot because the ACA500 has to be connected with an accelerator board with MMU which is also supported by NetBSD. The support for all other components will follow. (snx) (Translation: dr)
