Installing MAS Player Evolution on A600
Today, as my final bit of upgrade work for the past weekend, I am installing the MAS Player Evolution on the Amiga 600.
20 Years since Commodore and the future is bright
It is amazing to reflect that it has been 20 years since Commodore (and Amiga with it) went bankrupt, in 1994.
I wanted to take a moment today to reflect on the fact that despite this sad development, and some of the developments and many false starts and promises that followed since - that made some people lose faith, we still have a vibrant and active Amiga community today.
For that I am eternally grateful.

Cleaning the Amiga 600!
Having confirmed the Amiga 600 worked ok, today's job was cleaning it out. This of course meant pulling it apart for the first time.

My Amiga 600 has arrived!
Finally my Amiga 600 arrived today in the post, along with the spare keyboard I bought for it! I was very keen to muck around with it!

Uri's messing with my forks
I'm still stumped on the URI handling. Some mauve tests tries to assert the correctness of the URI and URL, returned by the two methods toURI(), and toURL() of a java.io.File object (where the latter is now deprecated, in favour of the first one). However, the mauve tests cannot be correct, since it for the URI thinks a corect result is the path appended with a file separator, and for the URL result doesn't want the file separator. I.e.

Tests in progress
Mauving forward (have I already used that pun...?)
I'm, as always, continuing my mauve testing. I might just spot stuff, that might make other stuff run.
I've been at this previosuly, but I'm now re-iterating the java-io tests. My progrss so far? See for yourselves:
