Having successfully taken over and published his first edition of Archive magazine (doubtless a steep learning curve he seemed to very successfully negotiate), the new editor (Gavin Smith) has announced sightly revised plans for the 2021 publishing schedule.
 

While we still continue to live in 'interesting times' in 2021, and most of us are confined to our homes, there are still lots of RISC OS related events for you to join in.
 

Some things we noticed this month. What did you see?
 

Following an odd saga over the weekend involving Facebook group bans, deleted comments and generally hostile responses, the Cloverleaf project have this evening posted an update to their Kickstarter page noting that due to legal concerns, their previous promises of including a large collection of games with the project's rewards will no longer be fulfilled. Instead, Cloverleaf will provide a way to download games from other sources.
 
Previously, Cloverleaf had promised a number of emulators and "enough games to discover and play for at least 1 year" as well as illustrating their project's posts with pictures of popular games such as Doom, Lemmings, Elite, Myst and Duke Nukem 3D.
 
In the short statement on the Kickstarter project's updates page, Cloverleaf explained:
 

If you pine after the days of playing games on the Sinclair Spectrum, you will be excited to learn that the Cloverleaf project have produced a RISC OS version of the Fuse emulator using the latest 2018 sources. There is already an older version of Fuse for RISC OS which dates back to 2012 here.
 

It is exciting to see lots of RISC OS software receiving updates in recent months. The latest good news is version 3 of CDVDBurn. This stalwart now runs on all RISC OS machines which have RISC OS 5.24 or later installed.
 

ROUGOL have arranged a December meeting with none other than Andrew Rawnsley on Monday 14th December. He will be providing updates on things that both R-Comp and RISC OS Developments have been working on in 2020 and hopefully being indiscrete about plans for 2021.
