AmigaOS 4: glUAE 20120616
glUAE is a collection of scripts which "makes the emulation experience perfectly natural by transparently integrating the emulator into the system, thanks to the AmigaOS flexibility and the UAE configurability."
Changes:
- Added direct WHDLoad support
- Allowed to indicate an alternative UAE executable on a per-application basis
- Allowed to choose at startup:
- The boot file, if no startup-sequence is found
- A hardfile, if more than 1 is found
- A UAE configuration, if none is found
- The UAE executable, if the default/application-specific one is not found
- Reworked the images mounting: when a specific image is specified for DF0:, the next 1, 2 or 3 images in the same directory are mounted to DF1:-DF3: in alphabetical order. (before DF1:-DF3: would get the first other 3 images in absolute)
- Made the determination of the application form depend first of all on the input file type
- Given the user more feedback in case of errors
- Renamed the "first-run" splash screen as "first-launch"
- Replaced the installer with a brand-new, AmigaOS-standard
installer/reinstaller/uninstaller
- Made several internal improvements
- Extended/reworked the documentation

AVCodec-Plugin 1.1 published
Press release: An update of the AVCodec plugin for Hollywood 5: Infinity has just been released. This update fixes some problems with WMV video files. A new feature is that the plugin now establishes a gateway to Hollywood's sound stream interface so that Hollywood can now play audio files supported by the FFMPEG codec collection as well, for example M4A/AAC (used by iTunes). This is especially useful on systems like AROS and Linux because Hollywood doesn't support MP3 playback on these platforms by default.

YAM: Planned changes in version 2.8 and next versions
Four days ago the main developers of the eMail programm YAM, Thore Böckelmann and Jens Langner, met to discuss the further development of this software. Under the title link you can find the results of this meeting.
As a result version 2.8 is making good progress and therefore could be be published before this Christmas. But they complained that developers for the MorphOS version as well as for all AROS versions are missing. More translators would be welcome as well.

A-Eon has been restructured and moved to Wales
A-Eon Technology, the company behind the AmigaOne X1000, was founded in 2009 as a CVBA ("Coöperatieve Vennootschap met Beperkte Aansprakelijkheid") - a cooperative company with limited liability. The company's main offices are located in Brussels, the main shareholders are Trevor Dickinson, Anthony Moorley and Ben Hermans (Hyperion).
For quite a while, there have been rumours that the company headquarters were about to be moved to Great Britain and that Ben Hermans and Anthony Moorley were no longer shareholders. On its recently redesigned website the company refers to itself as "A-Eon Technology Ltd.", according to Great Britian's company database it was founded two months ago and is headquartered in Cardiff, Wales.
The names of the shareholders are only available for a fee, but another well-known Amiga company is located in Cardiff: Leaman Computing Ltd., better known as Amigakit - the official X1000-distributor.
At director-check.co.uk, Matthew Leaman (Amigakit) is indeed listed as a director of A-Eon Technology, which indicates partnership in the company aswell. Trevor Dickinson's blog on A-Eon's website aswell as his behaviour on English Amiga portals suggest that he is still involved in A-Eon aswell. If the other founding members Anthony Moorley and Ben Hermans are still involved with the company is not known at the time of writing.
