Wzonka-Lad sources released under GPL
Wzonka-Lad had been one of the best Gameboy emulators for the 68k AGA Amiga. Since a long time, though, there haven't been neither any updates nor any news. Now has the author released the sources of the emulator under GPL. So there's now hope that there may come some updates should there be a programmer to continue the development.

Amiga Society: News about BBoAH and Schlachtfeld
The Big Book of Amiga Hardware by Ian Chapman had been updated again and comes now with even more comprehensive information.

Furthermore does the work on Schlachtfeld continue. Right now are especially Christian and Michael preparing the beta tests. For this is a portal built up that will be used by the testers to report their results to the developers using a form. Additionally will some polls be held in the near future regarding this subject.

For the time being is the team looking for beta testers and, should the occasion arise, some programmers for MorphOS. The tests will probably start at the end of the month. People who want to take part in theses should just send an email to Horst Diebel. (nba) (Translation: wk)
