There are several October news items to post from recent events. So here we go!

Congratulations goes out to Michal Schulz! He just received a brand new baby boy! Check out his blog for details.

AROS-Exec.org is looking to update it's web site and forum. They want to move away from Xoops and update the entire look of the site. If you have the know how and would like to volunteer to do this, please contact "NovaBurst" (That's me), at beelboing AT yahoo.com or catch me on the AROS IRC channel. We have already received submissions for this and that is wonderful!

Paolo Besser was scheduled to be at the Brusaporto Retrocomputing event in Italy today. I have not heard from Paolo yet, but I'm sure I will. I will report as soon as I hear something.

Rob Norris has posted an interesting article about "AROS and the GPL" on his blog today. Give it a read!
Earlier in the month Rob completed the SDL graphics and input drivers bounty.

With another large donation from DiscreetFX the UAE integration bounty has raised to over 2000 dollars! There were a couple more donations after DiscreetFX and the amount right now is $2132.00. I just want to say WOW! DiscreetFX has been very generous to AROS and I think it is great they are behind the UAE integration bounty like this.
This bounty is an important one. If you are reading this and would like to see a developer accept and complete this bounty, please donate.

One last item. Someone commented and asked on a previous post of The AROS Show about adding titles to my post. I would like to do this, but this change would cause me to change my current template and would take considerable time that I don't really have right now. I customized the current template I am using to a certain extent and I would have to make other adjustments to a different template. So for right now I don't have time. But I will plan to do this in the future. Thank you for reading and I do appreciate your comments and suggestions, so please don't hesitate to post them.
