Amiga-News.de asked developers and programmers for a little anecdote for an advent calendar. So from December 1st until Christmas in sometimes shorter, sometimes longer texts you will read about their Amiga beginnings, first successes and experiences from their creative wealth and little incidents to smile or even to think about. And of course also one, maybe two ;) MorphOS developers are involved. A big thank you to all who participated!

Iris 1.5 is now available for download from iris-morphos.com.

The new version introduces support for auto-archiving attachments into a zip archive, including encrypting them with password. It's also possible to unpack zip attachments directly from Iris.

The new version introduces massive performance gains in decoding of large file images.

Also changed:
- Loading progress bar colour can now be configured in Interface settings
- Cherrypicked OffscreenCanvas fixes from latest WebKit sources
- Added handling of very long filenames when finalizing a download
- Fixed a bad free call in the media decoder
- Disabled some stray debug
