AmigaOS 4/AROS: Bounty-project for Odyssey web browser
Under the title link on Power2poeople.org, a bounty project for releasing Fabien 'Fab' Coeurjoly's web browser Odyssey under an open-source-licence was established which would make it possible to adapt it to AmigaOS 4 and AROS.
Earlier versions of his browser the author already released for free. But these versions cannot play e.g. HTML5-videos. This fearture Fabien Coeurjoly developed himself; there is not any other Amiga implemenation for that except the (still unsatisfying) Firefox/Timberwolf. Alternative browsers for different operating systems are open-source but often overdependent (Chrome) or bloated (Webkit-GTK), or not open-source (Apple Quicktime for the Mac-version of Webkit or the Windows-implementation).

Putty Squad: Release failed due to disks
After the announcement to make available the so far unreleased full version of the Amiga game Putty Squad (amiga-news.de reported) and after our unanswered requests, if it might be the well-known demo version handele, System 3 now back-pedals:
In a video interview with Eurogamer under the title link, the CEO, Mark Cale, told (from minute 7 on) that currently options are considered but the original project could not be put into action because nobody could create the Amiga-disks to then add them to the collector's edition of the new HD-version for PC, Mac and consoles.
