WinFellow Alpha v0.4.4 (2011/07/18)

"- bus and CPU module: bus event and cpu instruction logging moved into #ifdefs. Removes dummy calls to logging functions found in the main bus loop, and the cpu instruction execution entry point and from irq and exception processing.
- CPU module: CPU flag calculations rewritten for speed.
- fmem.c: Re-introduced an old optimisation in a more general form, using memory pointers to read values from memory that is real memory.
- floppy.c: Was doing some minor logging of head positions. Commented it out.
- bus.c and cpuIntegration.c: Some other tweaks to the bus event loop and cpu execution loop to make sure no unnecessary code was run inside the loops.
- sysinfo: Using ...Ex method to read memory size larger than 4GB."

Hatari v1.5.0

"- On STE, correctly shift display 8 pixels to the left when using 224 bytes overscan (e.g. recent demos by DHS)
- Add support for spec512 mode in med res (fixes 'Best Part Of The Creation' in 'Punish Your Machine', 'HighRes Mode' demo by Paradox)
- Precisely emulate the number of frames per sec (eg 50.053 fps in PAL instead of the usual 50 Hz), required for correct video/audio sync under STE (e.g. More Or Less Zero by DHS)
- Sound improvements for STE, major rewrite of the DMA audio, precision should be really close to a real STE (e.g. HexTracker by Paulo Simoes)
- Improved precision in sound emulation, with nearly no rounding errors over successive VBL during many hours.
- By default mix 3 YM voices using a lookup table of values measured on real STF to improve digisound (e.g. Flashback demo by TCB)
- Alternative CPU core based on WinUAE for more accurate Falcon emulation, including 68030 timings, MMU, ...
- Improvements in DSP emulation.
- Various changes in the SDL GUI
- Many more functions in the built in debugger

WinArcadia & AmiArcadia v16.22a

"* wa: fixed: coloured buttons in "redefine keys" subwindow weren't clickable."

Dapplegrey v2.27

"New version of Boxer, version 1.1, will be recognized correctly. Remember, using Boxer versions 1.0 and up doesn't work properly in combination with Dapplegrey (Boxer 1.1 won't run the game given by Dapplegrey, but this still works fine with its pre-1.0 versions).
CD/DVD counting (which executes the DOSBox command "mount -cd") is working again.
Further pathes will be shortened now, too: Using DOSBox versions (also: DBGL versions) located in your Applications folder will work as "/Applications/DOSBox.app" as UNIX path, too, instead of its fullpath "/Volumes/Macintosh HD/Applications/DOSBox.app" used before. The longer your drive pathes, the shortener the path to the DOSBox application should be given. This is mostly of interest not for games added to the Dapplegrey's games list, but for independent DOSBox sessions started with Dapplegrey. These commands will be forwarded to DOSBox using Terminal commands, which are limited in its length.
The Dapplegrey programmer needs feedback about running this application in Mac OS X Lion, when shipped (or even earlier, if possible)."

on a real Jaguar. ;-)
r376
Kludge: Keep BIOS from running in Alpine mode.
r377
Fixed stupid bug giving bogus failure message to user in Alpine tab.
r378
Fixed OP regression in Rayman, probably others."
