New JFS fix available on IBM's testcase
The JFS developer forwarded to me the "latest and greatest" JFS-related
fixes. This will substantially reduce JFS fragmentation and increase stability under
load (among other fixes). Get ftp://testcase.boulder.ibm.com/ps/fromibm/os2/jfs0622.zip

Quesa Project - Porting Suggestion
Richard Turner has sent me some information about a project that can be ported
to OS/2.
The Project is called "Quesa" and its an OpenSource 3D Graphics library.
From the Site:
"Quesa is a high level 3D graphics library, released as Open Source under
the LGPL, which offers binary and source level compatibility with Apple's QuickDrawÖ
3D API. Quesa does not contain any Apple source code, and was developed without
access to Apple's QD3D implementation.
QD3D supports both retained and immediate mode rendering, an extensible file
format, plug-in renderers, a wide range of high level geometries, hierarchical models,
and a consistent and object-orientated API.
Quesa can sit on top other lower-level APIs (such as OpenGL or Direct3D), and
provide the 'scene graph' level of organisation that these APIs typically lack.

ThinkTool Pro Beta news
Fo those still interested in a very interesting product, if somewhat late, heres
some news.
Latest Think Tool Pro Beta Update (2001-06-16)
Completing the documentation for the Think Tool Pro is taking longer than we
wanted. In the mean time, we had many requests to release the final beta as soon
as possible, even if it meant not including the user documentation. So we have decided
that we will make the final beta available for download without the documentation.
We will make the documentation available as soon as it is complete. This way, you
will be able to begin using and testing the Think Tool Pro final beta as soon as
possible. We have completed the installation revision, and are currently making
some non-technical preparations for the final beta. The final beta (without documentation)
will be available for download here within the next few days.
ThinkTool Pro is an "Advanced Database and Knowledge Manager" produced
by Exponential Developement (previously phxsoft).

New release of Pronews/2
ftp://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/incoming/pn2151ib104.zip
Not much fixed in this version over ib102. ib104 was an increment of build number
while I reintegrated the changes from ib099 to ib103 into a restored copy of the
source.
1) Add checking in SaveHeaderData for malloc success. May stop crashes when saving
newsgroups.
2) Change max filehandles to current + 255 on startup. Hopefully this will stop
file open errors.
3) Release newsgroup semaphore occasionally to stop lockouts
4) Backout locking changes in nntp.c to try to fix corruption
5) Backout headers.idx file rewrites to see if this helps the mysterious wandering
server problems
6) Fixed ugly dashes in 640x480 for selected article

ZxMail Server build 0.9.11
Just to inform everyone v0.9.10 had a bug that gave an error when running the
server after a new install, so it would not start. fixed this with v0.9.11.
Also fixed an ugly bug that would see the server fail when connection would drop
under some circumstance (took a while to trace this one)
SmartCache 0.5.4
Smart Cache is full featured proxy cache server. It can be also used as replacement
for your browser's internal diskcache. If you do it, you will have faster, more
anonymous and offline browsing available. Program is written using Java language,
it can run under Windows, Linux, OS/2 and probably other operation systems.

New build of Sane for OS/2 v1.0.5
[Sane = Scanner Access Now Easy - a package from Linux to access Scanners - best
used with a frontend such as Tame - http://www.os2world.com/goran/tame.htm]]
Another new build of v1.0.5 - resynchronised my source tree as of 20:00 16th
June South Australian time :)
I had to backlevel dc25.c as I got an error on linking otherwise.
One quirk with this build, is that running scanimage.exe with no parameters displays
no output for about 10-15 seconds before coming up with the umax_pp warnings. I
may just disable the umax_pp backend on the next build to to these warnings/errors.
Umax backend has been updated to support threading on OS/2 and should now work.
HP and Snapscan and a few of the lesser used backends (I don't have my list handy)
still won't work either.
Latest build can be downloaded from ftp://psmedley.dyndns.org:21029/incoming/sane-1.0.5-latest.zip
or from my new, superduper web page (big grin) at http://users.bigpond.net.au/psmedley/sane/
For instructions on using Sane for OS/2 please read the information at the webpages
I've pointed out on my Sane webpage.
Regards,
Paul Smedley.
