Digital Almanac II update
The latest version of the astronomy software Digital Almanac II (Rev. 1.8.8) is now available for free to all
users from the author's homepage. An upload to Aminet was also done, so the Archive will soon be
available there soon.
Moreover, the author wants to thank all participants of the DA-PPC survey. The positive feedback of
the survey will therefore be rewarded. As soon as DCE starts production of the PPC boards, DA will
be released in a first trial version for WarpOS. The PPC part of the homepage will therefore be reworked
as soon as the port becomes an issue.

Amiga User meeting in Wolfenbuettel
After I received such a positive response in the amigaOS chat room about
the idea of a club independant amiga user meeting, I though I should follow
up on the idea.
The meeting will take place sometime in early summer (probably from
Saturday-Sunday on the 8th and 9th of July) here in Wolfenbuettel. At this
time I cannot make any statement about the program, since it is largly
dependant upon the amiga community itself. It is safe however to say that
barbequeing is on the adgenda. I will also try to get some "special guests"
to show up. First inquiries in this direction have proved to be very
positive.
We will try to keep the costs as low as possible. I will try to keep it
under 10,- DM per person. The costs however for lodging will most probably
have to be covered by everyone themselves. We may however be able to come
up with alternatives.
However before i can begin with planning, I need to know how many people
would like to attend.It would be great if you could send me an email if you
think you might be attending. (O.Tacke@surfway.de).
This is not a binding application, just a channel to voice your support.
AmiOlli.

AudioLabs: iRec for AmigaOS, live streaming audio reciever
AudioLabs announces iRec (internet Recording), live streaming MPEG capabilities for AmigaOS! This cool
feature comes embedded in any new ProStationAudio version, starting with the forthcoming Millennium
edition.
iRec is fully functional (monitoring and direct-to-disk recording) in the new ProStationAudio demo to be
available for downloading the first week of March 2000. Every AmigaOS user is encouraged to take advantage
of this new free tool.
Thanks to iRec, the ProStationAudio mixing console input (RecBus) can be switched between a local audio
board or a remote audio server, accessible via Internet or a LAN.
Once connected (Miami or compatible TCP stack required), iRec lets you record live MPEG streams. During
the streaming process, ProStationAudio allows you to monitor the incoming signal and record direct-to-disk,
with on-the-fly conversion from MPEG to PCM.
iRec is compatible with a large number of web-stations broadcasting in MPEG, including ShoutCast (TM)
audio servers.
Millennium saves your preferred iRec URL's into an external text file so that you can easily edit/process your
database or share it with other ProStationAudio users.
The ProStationAudio editing application requires a 68040/16MB system to start with, and is optimized for
hi-end configurations including up to two video cards, two monitors and two CPUs.
For more information about ProStationAudio please refer to the official sites:
http://www.audiolabs.it (European server)

Ralph Schmidt alias "Al Bundy" and every other character from Al Bundy's surrounding. The question is what lesson should we get out of
this? That the MorphOs Team is a laugh? ;-).

New AmigaPlus has arrived
(German print mag)
The new release of AmigaPlus has arrived. At first to remember: The magazine is now called AmigaPlus powered by AmigaOS. This is due to the fact that AmigaOS, who have taken over AmigPlus, also took over the structure of distribution of AmigaPlus. Let's put it another way: It is labeled AmigaPlus, but it has AmigaOS inside ;-).
Highlights from issue 03/2000:
News goals of Amiga: Bill McEwen in Frankfurt
Fleecy Moss talking to Amiga Plus
The G3-Hope: met@box interview
Linus talks: An interview with Linus Torvalds
Linux distributions for the Amiga
In detail: Installing Linux on the Amiga
and much more

Voyager 3 statusreport
Since the last update we have worked on a list of bugs and have done some changes. Right now we are concentrating mostly on finishing Javascript support and the improvement of the API plugins. Good news are certainly the fact that Emmanuel Lesueur has made his Apdf PDF-Viewer available as a V ³-Plugin.
Vflash has been rewritten in many parts and is a lot faster now than the earlier version. M68k version are already working very well. Zapek is working hard to finish the PPC-version.
During the next 2 weeks there will be a new Voyager-Version. Imagedecoder and Vflash-updates might be available earlier eventually.

Amiga Forum completely reworked
We have reworked the graphics as well as the contents of our forum. Take a look at it and get your own opinion. Questions, suggestions and new ideas are always welcome.
The forum is, indeed, one of the subpages that already has been translated to English. In fact, it offers a German and an English
"chapter". The English one, however, has seen only a dozen posts or so. The forum is for you; use it! State your point of view, ask your
questions, tell us what you think of our service amiga-news.de. Aside from providing valuable (and motivating) feedback for us, the editors,
it might turn this forum from a dusty place into just the place to post to! (And yes, I am reading the forum myself regulary!) (mb)
