TELE reports about Amiga
I just read issue 18/00 of the Swiss media magazine TELE, and on page 33 I found two articles:
"Comeback of the Amiga?" and "No April Foolīs joke". They come with a picture labeled: "Itīs
biggest advantage was it never crashed."

AminetGUI / Some private notes
Because I have to do my military service starting on May 1st, 2000, I can only reply to
questions in the forum or by mail on weekends only. Moreover, work on the Aminet-GUI will
be sparse. But here is a promise: The Aminet-GUI wonīt be closed. If it is possible, I
will continue with updates.
If somebody is interested in working as co-webmaster, please contact me. Right now is
this GUI a one-man effort. Alexander Kurtz, webmaster of Aminet.de.
Digital Almanac II Bugfix Update (1.8.15)

Sharks! CD32 edition finished
"SHARKS! CD32 Edition" is finished, and will be shipped starting today. The game can
be easily ordered from me by e-mail.

might cost more. Contact Christian for details. (mb)

With a CD32 emulation, the CD soundtrack is working, too! More details on my homepage

AFD-Copyright News
Itīs time again for some news on the project "Standard Amiga FD-Software Copyright Note" (TM)
or, for short, "AFD-COPYRIGHT" (TM). This copyright note is an offer to all Amiga developers
wanting to release FD-Software, be it freeware, giftware, shareware or whatever.
AFD-COPYRIGHT is now available in sixteen (16!!!) languages - in two formats each, plain text
and HTML file. The latest addition is a Catalan translation by Llorenį Grau from the ATO.
The files can now be downloaded from the official support site for AFD-COPYRIGHT. The URL
is http://www.dknoll.myokay.net/AFD/ (title link).
The forwarding URL (http://AFD.home.pages.de/) is currently not available, because home.pages.de
is offline since April 28th. I recommend the home.pages.de adress for homepage links nevertheless,
because it will probably remain valid for some time to come.

AmyGate version 1.10 released
AmyGate is the first internet-client that unites several services in one. Normally you need
many programs to have full access to the Aminet. First a browser to surf through the files and
archives, a FTP-program for uploads and a mailprogram to value the programs and to subscribe
and unsubscribe to mailinglists. AmyGate unites all these programs into one and gives you easy
and comfortable handling.
New manga@amiga page!
Now there is a manga@amiga site available! Mangas are (in general) japanese comiccharacters
that have special optical and charactical attributes. Normally you can recognize them with
their "big" eyes and and their long legs. Also the art of drawing, shadowing, effects of flare
are typical for this kind of comics. Known examples are Pokemon, Sailormoon and Dragonball.
If you follow the titlelink you will find a website, that only deals with mangas.
You can download Rekocardsets, wallpapers, kissfiles, workbenchenhancers and many more.
Attention: Because of the works on the Aminet from Friday till Monday most of the links
wonīt work in this time.
