  • Ready,Set,Go! 7.0.9 Diwan Software Ltd. has released a new Mac OS 8.5 compatible version of Ready,Set,Go!. Paul Ringsmuth tried it and reports it worked great!

  • DOCMaker 4.8.4 adds Mac OS 8.5 compatibility.
  • Sonnet Crescendo 1.2.6b1 is out (I guess 1.2.5 did not solve all the 8.5 problems).
  • World Clock CSM 2.5v1 is out. It fixes the incompatibility of the MaBaSoft registration routine with MacOS 8.5. This incompatibility was due to the new Appearance 1.1.
