I hope to be able to comment more about the Q68 at a later time, right
now let me say thanks to...

... Laurence Reeves and Tony Firshman for releasing Minerva as free QL
operating system, motivating me to develop the Q68 at all

... Richard Zidlicky for bringing Minerva plus PS/2 driver to the Q68
and his great help debugging CPU cores

... Mark Swift for QDOS Classic, structured so nicely that even I could
port it to the Q68 in a single day

... Tobias Gubener for the CPU core the Q68 finally uses

... Adrian Ives for the QL-SD driver, initially used for Q68 mass storage

... Tony Tebby for relasing SMSQ/E as free software after all

... Wolfgang Lenerz for his outstanding achievement of porting SMSQ/E to
the Q68

... Wolfgang Lenerz again for very helpful tools, extra drivers and docs

... Derek Stewart for his courage and lots of work manufacturing the Q68
hardware and making it available for the public

All the best
Peter

[Ql-Users] PCB Design 7.54

[Dilwyn Jones via Ql-Users]

A new update of Malcolm Lear's PCB Design program is available to download 
free of charge from my website, at 
http://www.dilwyn.me.uk/graphics/index.html or 
http://www.greybeardz.com/graphics/index.html.


The previous version available from my site was v7.52, so here's a list of 
changes since then:



7.53:

Fixed bug in editing mode logic, present since version 7.51.
Rem'd out development code.
Unassigned variables now initialized.

7.54:

Jedec  SMD  library  components  accuracy  is  improved and are generated 
from raw official data.
Standard  drill  assignments  assumed for old project files and .ncd files 
ignored (used only between version 6.00 and 6.02).

File format revision reported on load.
Auto Gerber/NC Drill now has its own export menu.
Selecting a printer port in a non printing export mode now prompts a 
warning.
Improved code that determines whether the export path should mirror the 
project path.
New  track  snaking  feature  creates  sinusoidal  track offset transitions 
which can be particularly useful for data busses.
