Aladdin 4D 6.0 Beta Testers Wanted
******************************

We are searching for a few great 3D Amiga artists. We need help beta testing Aladdin 4D 6.0 first on Mac OS X, then other operating systems including Amiga OS 4.x, MorphOS and AROS. Experience in other 3D animation packages is a plus. Experience creating 3D objects is a double plus. Please be ready to show examples of your work. You don't get paid for beta testing but you do get beta and final versions of Aladdin 4D 6.x for free. Please contact us via the link below.

Timberwolf Progress Update
************************

http://www.amigabounty.net/?function...4&historyid=53

Thomas Frieden posted a status update for the porting of Firefox to Amiga OS 4.1.

Text:
I'm aware that we have been quiet lately, but don't worry, there's been work going on, and Timberwolf is making progress. The 4.0 code base of Firefox now fully builds and a prototype implementation of the new rendering code was implemented, based on the old rendering code.

Instead of "fixing" the old code, though, we opted for a complete rewrite, for a couple of reasons. First of all, The old code became really bad with time (the usual thing that happens with experimental code). Secondly, Re-implementing it all would get rid of any artefacts in the code that were still necessary in the 3.5 source tree. Basically, it's a clean start.

With the information gathered in the previous effort, it only took me a few hours to rewrite the skeleton for the widgets module. This does not include
the rendering code yet. This will be up next, right after fixing a few outstanding bugs that cause crashes on exit.

In the process of porting the 4.0 base, we also ported a new version of
sqlite. We'll release that in the near future (when I find the time, if you need it up front, drop me a mail). I'm usually quite bad at predicting how
long things will take (Actually, precisely "when it's done", of course), but I hope to have the rendering code in the course of the next two to three weeks (depending on how much time I have for working on the project). We will
release a new pre-release version as soon as we have something that can be remotely used.

We also wish to take the opportunity to thank all of those that supported us, and apologize for the long stretches of silence. We're still at work, and although progress is slow, we'll eventually get there.
