[Motd] New features on ANN | ANN.lu |
Posted on 14-Apr-2001 16:28 GMT by Christian Kemp | 11 comments View flat View list |
The display options moved to the left of the window and access to older articles is once again in the status bar at the top. If your browser supports CSS and DHTML, you can now hide the vertical navigation bars. This does not require any cookies or bookmarks, just a click every time you need it. As for display options, you can now chose whether you want to see 10, 25 or 50 news items at a time. There's also a third viewing style. These two new features can be set permanently by changing an option and bookmarking the resulting page. As always, please let me know of any ideas or suggestions you might have. I'd be particularly interested in how these new features render on "lesser" browsers - I tested on v6 versions of MSIE and Netscape.

As you might have noticed, messages of questionable content have been posted on ANN under fictious names, Fleecy's name, as well as my own name. In the latest case, the border between harmless joke and abuse/slander has clearly been crossed, and I have invoked abuse procedures. The ISP of the offending poster has been contacted, and I'm hoping they will take appropriate measures. Any future postings that fall under the same category (abuse/slander and/or impersonating some other person) will also yield the same reaction: removal of the offending posting without any further comment, contacting of the ISP, and if everything else fails, legal action. This clearly cannot continue.

Fleecy also mentions a Amiga Development Pipeline and mentions how he would like to see MUI on AmigaOS 4.0 which should be considered as a personal opinion and no firm committment He also mentions the MorphOS situation once more and closes off with saying that No one benefits from a split community but MS and Apple.

[News] Fleecy: how normal users can contribute | ANN.lu |
Posted on 11-Apr-2001 16:05 GMT by Christian Kemp | 32 comments View flat View list |
Fleecy explains what normal users can do to make the next AmigaOS a success: Buying products, subscribing to magazines, evangelising to the world, nagging non Amiga developers to get on board, showing off to your friends, forming Amiga clans and kicking non Amiga clan backsides in games, joining and participating in local Amiga User groups, and working in Team Amiga and other internet based groups. (..) We should start some sort of almost evangelical thing - A target of 50,000 registered OS4 users, and all work towards that end.
I have to admit that the "evangelical thing" sounds pretty scary to me. :)
