1. This one is rather cosmetic: Content group on the left contains "Statement of Intent" and "The Terms Of Service". There shouln't be "The" in the last (if it should, then it also should appear in the 1-st, but imho it shouldn't) Mozilla wraps the line with "The", would look nicer with shorter and not-wrapped line or with a larger form width. 2. This one isn't a bug but a fine-tuning: The minimum time for editing post is too large imho (If there's a minor edit like typo I always get the come-back-after-30-seconds message. 15 seconds is more reasonable imho. It's becoming a great siite, keep up the good work Jack

@Raziel Quote: Nearly every sound/audio format (except the brand-new ones) can be played by Amiga Aac+ v2 (aka mpeg 4) might be a problem for m68k hardware-wise (the decompression is afaiu more cpu-intensive than of mp3) On ppc mplayer should tackle it without problem. The internal aac decoder (some snapshot of libgaad) of mplayer does a better job than the more up-to-date libfaad. Wma should be resolved by mplayer (rc1 has an extensive liet of windblows-related formats supported internally) Jack

@Raziel Quote: rxsocket.library (which you should anyways, it rules) Yup. There's also an shoutcast player which is implemented with its help (pipes the stream to mpega). search for streammp3 on aminet (and a gui version via awnpipe: -), after doing it on Amiga I did a quick annd dirty one on linux using regina-rexx, rexxtk and mplayer ) (A)REXX rulez Jack.

It's not a bug but feature: s there a way to increase the timeout time of the edited post? I confront the message saying that edit took too much time too much quite often.
TIA, Jack

Quote: It's bloated to the sky!
A PPC AOS4.0 native browser with Java and CSS support is what we want.
Thinking again.. Yup, you have a huge point there: there's no chance to get flash plugin for mozilla on ppc.... So actually why bother? One who wants could launch mozilla form some Unix box using X11, or use RDesktop/VNC with Windblows box. Jack.

Joining commercial and non-commercial product? Too many obstacles in the way imho. (I hope I'm wrong though) Maybe mozilla on X11@OS4? Just a thought... Jack

@Chris: Quote: I'd just like to see a scrollbar on the default OS4 Shell.
Imho, in case the dev. package of term.mcc does exist, it'll be too much "inside the box" thinking. Would be unwise to miss an existing functionality. Anyone who works remotely on Unix boxes will find this "a must". To rwork remotely relying on AmTelnet's ssh functionaliity won't work for long (it does protocol 1 while it is years ssh1 is considered as obsolete). Jack

The ideal thing would be something that embeds term.mcc based object (it has various kinds of terminal emulations already implemented, would be perfect with ssh/telnet applications). The problem that there appears to be no dev. package on aminet. May it's be somewhere esle? Just an idea...

@Rudei Quote: Is it the good luck thing you are querying, or have I misunderstood?
I meant I saw two "good luck"s here with a whiff of scepticism in reply or the message itself. Or it's a habbit one get from too much lurking in aw.net lately(misinterpretation of things one reads)? Maybe i's just me seeing/reading things that are not there. Never mind Jack

What's the matter with the "good luck" here? I don't get it. Can't detect an irony there. Really puzzles me... Does it have something to do the people who say it? Jack

@Kvasir: As people noted, with a decent accelerator and more ram wou can get much more of it. With a pcmcia network adapter you can hook it to broad-band Internet (I found one at EBay, won it for 1 GBP, the seller was so dissapointed by the low price that he threw in another car,without the cable though, both are 3com ). Then to get a decent bandwidth you'll need an accelerator. 68060 probably will require you getting a beefier PSU. One form A500 mught do it (afair it's 25W vs 23W on the original A1200's). 68060 rulez imho (no need for fan and faster).
And if you get clock-port prelude (not a must, but can be handy): you get 16-bit sound.
If you want a CD-rom - you'll need a buffered ide interface (Elbox have these afair), but you'll need a power supply for CD and there will be its data cable coming out of the cases of A1200. It 's not elegant but works (I had case of x386 hosting the 3.5'HD+CDROM left to the A1200 case for couple of years. PC power supply was feeding the A1200 --- there are lot of places you can find how to wire A1200 power connector to AT PSU) More elegant solution: tower (don't get 2-nd hand Ateo one, in the long term it might prevent you from using Grexxes and Mediators). But that's an investment (in long term allows to get much more that everything else available ATM)
An alternative to buffered ide interface: power-flyer-type interface (I hope my memory is ok regarding this).It doesn't work with Linux afair.
BTW: Regarding memory expansion: I have a Microbotics one somewhere here, afair with 4Mb fast ram and fpu. If you intersted: feel free to PM/e-mail.
Jack.
