PageStream price action until May, 16th 2003 Grasshopper LLC, developer of the DTP application PageStream, wrote: We have been inundated with requests to continue to offer our discounted price for PageStream full copies and upgrades. Of course who can blame them! Paying less than 1/3 retail for a powerful desktop publishing program like PageStream, not to mention discounts across the board on upgrades sure does help the pocket book. For those new customers who have joined the PageStream crowd, welcome aboard! However, all good things must come to an end! After May 16th, PageStream's pricing returns to our normal great price! New Web Site In Development We have decided to take it upon ourselves to make a radical redesign of the GrasshopperLLC web site. Our basic design goals are to make it easy for new customers to learn about PageStream's features, samples, how it compares to others, and of course how to buy it. We hope to provide near instant download access to new purchases. For existing PageStream users, it should be easy to find answers to common questions, new scripts and templates, and more. We have set up a survey on our web site asking for input on what you would like to see on our website, and to tell us about your favorite sites. The survey can be found at www.grasshopperllc.com. Suggestions and any other help you can offer can also be directed at sales@grasshopperllc.com. (nba) (Translation: wk) [News message: 10.

Racer Source Code will be published as GPL As you might know, there seem to be a bunch of people in the Linux community who have a problem with Racer not being GPL'ed. This might be a good time to take a crossroads. I plan to release the Racer v0.5.0 source code under GPL. I don't think I'll host that version after that, since we don't have that much bandwidth and would take time that I'd rather put in other things. After the GPL release, I'll close the source for future versions. This does not have any impact on the strategy of Racer, which means a free executable version for the platforms (although I still have the problem of DRI executables for Linux, since I don't have such a set in my possession). There are plans for commercial implementations using Racer, and you may have noticed things like 'ecol' or 'ecue'. Those are proprietary extensions. Probably RakNet (a quite cool networking library) will enter the game as well. It becomes harder to get clean source code out the door, free of rights. Also, since the multiplayer component might take a bit of a boost with RakNet (at least take out the 2-player limit at once), it would be too easy for hackers to create modified versions of Racer and find their way through the network protocol. Although I'm sorry for all those interested in the source code, it seems like the right path. There's always the GPL spinoff that could be maintained. I'm not sure how that's going to turn out; I'm getting major support these days in putting realism and knowledge into Racer's physics and that is interesting for anyone. The 2 Racer version will drift apart, that's for sure, if only because of the networking protocols, I'm afraid. I'm not convinced however that a GPL spinoff (with which I will have little to do) will go to bigger heights than a closed source one. Even though it potentially means more developers, it still takes a lot of devotion to make stable improved versions without hacking little bits in just for the day. So with the GPL version you'd have OpenSource, but no license to commer cially sell it. It just still seems a bit counterproductive almost to split the project into two. Comments will be read with interest, although with these things I can imagine you'll have 2 groups; those that are for and those that are against, and nothing much will bring the 2 together. www.racer.nl.

Online Magazine "NoCover" Accessible on its Own Homepage Many Amiga fans already know about it, the time-honored online magazine "NoCover" has finally found its earned place on the Internet. The complete homepage contains clearly over 200 megabytes and was completely newly and currently uploaded on 7th May, 2003. As always, near the current edition of the loved online magazine are the old editions as well, quickly and easily found under the menu option "NoCover Guide," and individual articles may also be quickly found through a comprehensive oversight structure. A visit in the current issue or the back issues is always rewarding. This mighty big, but long overdue, Internet debut of "NoCover" was made possible through the sponsor www.ConnectWeb.de, who made available server resources and hosting on their servers, and also together with Wolf Zimmer, who is responsible for the complete editorial portion of "NoCover," handled around the updating. We would also like to take this opportunity to remind you all that we absolutely need active helpers for "NoCover." So we always seek volunteer editors, who have the desire to look after and care for a single area in "NoCover" and to contribute regular articles. We also rejoice over individual articles on any familiar theme. Regular editors have the advantage of getting their own email address with a giant Pop3 email post box (200 megabytes in size), and self-evidently also a secure SMTP server with authentication of the webserver "AS2-Chicago" in order to dispatch their own emails. Besides there is also an individual subdomain that will be established, so that in addition to emails regular editors may also get their own free hom page. We are able to offer this package as a little reward to all volunteer editors who would like to regularly and actively help the magazine. Of course the online magazine may also be gotten as usual, through an email subscription from Wolf Zimmer, as well as the website APC&TCP and on Aminet. We ask for your understanding that the new homepage, despite an astounding start, is still not fully complete, and we sincerely invite you to the "NoCover" homepage. Further we would naturally be delighted to be linked from many Internet sites, in order for "NoCover" to become again the biggest Amiga meeting point, as it was in earlier times. We wish everyone much fun at the homepage of NoCover and rejoice at your visit. (ps) (Translation: dm) [News message: 08.

Toolbar for Pegasos (Test version) Carsten Siegner writes: "Today I've prepared my MOS-native toolbar for Pegasos in a test version. This puts PNG icons of whatever programs are used on the toolbar, where they may then be clicked. Right now the gadgets are not yet activated, and the program thread is read from a Box.pref data. This toolbar supports only the new MorphOS icons in PNG format. The whole thing has the advantage that I can easily build FX effects into the gadgets, which look fantastic. To get this toolbar demo to run, you must download the usual libs from my homepage. This toolbar was written with "Hollywood for MorphOS." (nba) (Translation: dm) [News message: 08.

amiga-news.de Community T-Shirts (Update) Since February 2003 we've been discussing in our forum the question of if and in what form we could offer t-shirts with the amiga-news.de logo. Rolf Tingler, our home-and-garden graphic artist, has the opportunity to stain some t-shirts. To those whom "staining" doesn't mean anything: the numbers of soccer t-shirts are usually used up per staining (whoever has had this done knows how expensive it can be). In his shop Rolf Tingler now offers different T-Shirt-Designs in different colors with the amiga-news.de logo from 17 euros and up. The shirts consist of top quality ring-spun cotton (minimum 180g/qm) with double-seams at the arm and collar. The staining is washable up to 60 degree [Celsius, I think -dm] and the colors of the staining don't fade. The amiga-news.de logo can be printed according to the wishes of the purchaser: large across the back, small at front right breast, or both. Take a look at the pictures in the online shop, and click, to blow them up. If you like, a nickname may be placed under the amiga-news.de logo, at no charge. This should be no more than 12 letters if possible. Update: (14.07.2011, 00:00, cg) While moving old static content to the database, the following gallery with pictures of the community t-shirts has been added to this news item:
