Hauppauge developer needed
"TVShow is a program that, when used in conjunction with BT878-based
cards, brings TV to the OS/2 desktop. I wrote this program because the
existing desktop TV solutions slow down other programs on my OS/2 system."

Project Odin: daily builds are back
As promised some days ago the Odin daily builds are back! When the
changelog gets updated the daily builds will be created automatically
(once a day :-).
You can get them directly from
ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/odin/Daily/
Notes for developers:
We've switched from GCC 3.0.3 to GCC 3.2.1 for compiling NTDLL. More Odin
dlls (like MSVCRT) will require GCC in the future. CVS contains a
detailed description on how to setup the GCC 3.2.1 build environment.
Odin Homepage: http://odin.netlabs.org
You are welcome to submit screenshots & reports of applications to the
application database.
Enjoy!
Thanks to Sander Van Leewuen for the GCC changes and to Knut St. Osmundsen
for setting up daily builds again!
