Compiler: ECX 2.1.0

MorphOS: Reggae-Updates - multimedia.class and multiread.buffer
Grzegorz "Krashan" Kraszewski has published two updates for his multimedia library Reggae:
multimedia.class 52.14:
- New helper methods for implementing seek in subclasses: PreSeek/PostSeek pair has similar purpose as PrePull/PostPull. They do all the framework "bookkeeping", parameters verification, detection of seek past end of stream, method forwarding along the pipeline, log messages and so on. What is also important, PreSeek implements automatic "seek-by-read" fallback for not seekable data sources. Then a subclass implementor may be sure he can always perform forward seek in his demuxer/decoder, even for streams like http.stream (which is not seekable).
multiread.buffer 51.5
- No functional changes, just uses pull and seek helpers in the new multimedia.class, it requires multimedia.class 52.14+ for this reason. Updated documentation.

Web-Browser: First alpha version of Netsurf for AmigaOS 3
On a discussion on amiga.org Artur Jarosik told that he has ported the browser Netsurf to AmigaOS 3. NetSurf is a fast browser which was originally developed for RiscOS and which works from 17 MB memory on and supports HTML 4.01, XHTML 1.0 and CSS 2.1.
The AmigaOS 3-version is an early alpha version. There are till some bugs (colours, text input). Netsurf requires Truetype-Fonts, which therefore requires a Truetype-Handler (the author recommends AfA). The required fonts are included in the package and must be copied to ONTS:TrueType/. Additionally a screen mode of 32 Bit colour depth should be used for Netsurf.

Additionally there is an overview of new downloads at the lower border of the download page. Furthermore there have been updates to the descriptions and screenshots of some downloads.
The Amiga Future is a non-profit project. That's why the Amiga Future homepage has to completely manage itself in terms of financing. The about 8 GB containing homepage is entirely paid by advertising, donations and our own private money. Especially the development of new expansions, databases and features is really expensive. That's why we ask you to support us by donating money. It allows us to make the homepage more user friendly and comprehensive.
