But what if you're a developer who wants to get your software listed - where do you start? http://www.iconbar.com/comments/rss/news1436.html Hot on the heels of updating Font Directory Pro, Elesar have announced a new release of the resurrected Accounting package Prophet. http://www.iconbar.com/comments/rss/news1434.html RISC OS friendly ISP and hosting provider Orpheus Internet have recently launched a crowd funding campaign, with the goal of helping to raise the funds needed to set up a second data centre in a new location.
