Michal Zukowski has released version 8.70 of GhostScript for use with MorphOS 3.10 and newer.

Beta 27 of the MorphOS' next email client - Iris - is available for download from tunkki. The most notable changes include a 30%+ speed boost of the whole application and custom certificate handling.

To update, simply extract the archive and copy files overwriting your existing installation - your settings and caches are safe in their separate directories.

The previous RNOWidgets release had an issue with the AHI device allocation, which blocked the audio output from other programs if they were using AHI's Music Unit, or if you ran out of channels on the device interface. This wasn't a good behaviour for this kind of application, so please update now to avoid confusion later!

This new version also adds a volume control option for alarm sounds.

Download the update from Aminet, MorphOS Storage, or via Grunch.

• New weather widget
