01 Dec 2007 Back to the Roots V2.41 Patch Level 3 Patch:     Level 3     Level 2     Level 1 Hello and welcome to the third small update since our main archive down time. Since our new Site-Blog is obviously traced by many users, we will start the next level of improving update speed: Patchwork Updates. These are update fragments which we'll grow on the frontpage to the huge updates you know from the past. We hope you enjoy the show!

01 Dec 2007:       Back to the Roots V2.41     -     Patch Level 3

Fred Fish's final trip:           fish.back2roots.org Today, Saturday, December 1, 2007 the family and close friends of Fred Fish will meet in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, to give Fred a last "farewell". At 12:00 noon PST (20:00 GMT) Fred's wife Michelle Fish will spread Fred's ashes in the one place he really loved, the sea. If you have a minute, and you liked his work, you may want to send him a farewell too... Fish-News   - Sat, 01.Dec.2007 - 12:00 PM PST   = 20:00 GMT/UTC = 21:00 german time

Fred Fish Memorial Archive:           fish.back2roots.org Since our last update we received quite some missing material, like Fresh Fish Vol.1 (Rev.1), Fresh Fish Vol.2 and Gold Fish Vol.3 (single CD version), but we still search missing CDs. We also received a license from Marty Flickinger who compiled the Fish 'n' More CDs for Xetec Inc. to put them online. Thanks Marty! We start with Fish 'n' More Vol.3, and still search for people who own Vol.1 and Vol.2, plus cover scans of Vol.3. Fish-CDs   - Fresh Fish Vol.1 - Fresh Fish Vol.2   - Xetec license - Fish+More Vol.3

Atari CD-ROM archive:           atari.back2roots.org Due to the enormous output from the Atari scene we have started another little side project listing Atari related material we have online here. Since a while we host two CD series from Lotek Style aka MC Laser of TSCC, the Atari mods and music collection Fading Twilight which we just added 4 new CDs, and the demo and scene material collection No Fragments which even got extended by 6 further CDs. Thanks Lotek Style! Fading-Twilight   - Fading Twilight 8-11 No-Fragments   - No Fragment 2-7

Spanish Scene Archive:           spanish.back2roots.org Another scene with an enourmous output these days is the spanish scene, so we dedicated it another little side project. Besides updating our mirror of the modulez.org spanish mod scene ftp, we also added the third CD of the spanish modules compilations Modplanet now. Finally we added the Spanish Scene compilations by Dargo^LLFB spanning 5CD and te first Avalon CD by Vago^Avalon Software, all with spanish scene output. Big thanks go to Fermix^LLFB for this huge upload! Site-News   - Spanish Scene Spanish-CDs   - Avalon Software 1 - Modplanet 3 - Spanish Scene 1-5

Initial Music:           initialmusic.back2roots.org This in a nice new hosted project by the danish scene musician The Boss^6th Dimension, which is also planned and prepared since years. Here you can download game music from early Amiga games covered by our licenses, transcoded to the MP3 format. This is also a good example how a hosted site can benefit of this place and its licenses. So far BTTR had no boss, only team members. Now we have one - The Boss of 6th Dimension ;-) Site-News   - Game Music - Mod downloads - MP3 downloads - Background info

17 Nov 2007:       Back to the Roots V2.41     -     Patch Level 2

Fred Fish Memorial Archive:           fish.back2roots.org Now two weeks have passed since we opened our tribute page to Fred Fish, which went a successfull burn-in-test for our new server: During the last 2 weeks our main server delivered 25.000 CD images, most of them Fred Fish CDs! The memorial archive grew to 3 times its initial size, thanks to the numerous people who contributed missing material! There's still quite some stuff missing, so please check your collections and consider contributing, especially the Frozen Fish and the Geek Gadget Snapshot CDs. Thanks! Fish-CDs   - Fresh Fish Vol.4-9 - Gold Fish Vol.1 ADE-CDs   - GeekGadgets 9805 - GeekGadgets v1+2

Geek Gadgets FTP:           ftp.back2roots.org/pub/geekgadgets Since we mirrored ftp.ninemoons.com daily, up to 26.Aug.2004 when it went down we have the latest copy of it online, which we consider the master site from now on. We will exctend it with any snapshots and improved versions we could get hold of to at least provide an up to date archive of this (currently?) sleeping project. We will happily give anyone interested to continue and maintain it full control over it. FTP-News   - GeekGadgets docs - ADE Amiga ports - ADE BeOS ports - Mailing list archives

Geek Gadgets Reloaded:           geekgadgets.back2roots.org     =     gg.back2roots.org Since the FTP is only a part of the project we digged out a copy of the Geek Gadgets master site, originally hosted at www.geekgadgets.org. We started reconstructing the master site of it, giving it a handy subdomain. All missing package documents will be added with time. We call this side project Geek Gadgets Reloaded and will happily handle control over to a new maintainer. Site-News   - GG Project Docs - GG Bugs List - GG Package Docs - GG Java FAQ

Amigascne.org full mirror:           ftp.back2roots.org/pub/amigascne We finally finished a years old plan to have a fullmirror of the huge amigascne.org archive online on our FTP. Due to storage space limits we only had a partial mirror, which we fixed now, so we now have an official full mirror. Big thanks go to Cygnus^Amigascne for being such an easy guy. Enjoy the enormous collection of about 10GB of Amiga scene output. Even if you're used to browse huge archives you will surely get lost once you dive in there!

Faces of Mars Archive:           fom.back2roots.org Another years old plan we already started long a go finally gets realised: An online version of the Faces of Mars disk series and FreeCDs offering all releases for download at no cost. This project is still work in process, but since most FreeCDs are already online, we decided to release it, so you may all help filling the gaps. We still have no FOM disk above #336, so please check your PD CDs for FOM disks 337-500+ to finish the collection. Thanks. Free-CDs   - 14 Game-CDs - 1 Demo-CD - 4 Tool-CDs - 5 Gfx-CDs

Amidemos Master Site:           amidemos.back2roots.org         ftp.back2roots.org/pub/amidemos While we were updating our FTP we stumbled across the FTP mirror of robotriot's amidemos.org project, a collection of Amiga demos transcoded to DIVX / AVI video format. We updated our mirror from the scene.org archive but noticed that quite some videos were missing. So we digged in backup copies until we recreated most of the collection, only Kah835gb by Madwizards and Raybong by Loveboat are missing. If you have any of these videos from amidemos collection then please upload it so we can finish the new Amidemos Master Site. Thanks!

FlatDisk Modules FTP:           flatdisk.back2roots.org         ftp.back2roots.org/pub/flatdisk The Flatdisk Modules Archive (FDMA) by FlatRich of FlatDisk Softworks is a collection of over 5600 mods, collected in the years 1992-1999. We host this archive since a while, including per collection year ModRadio channels. We added it now to our FTP server too, offering you a convenient way for mass downloading it. FTP-News   - 5600 Modules

02 Nov 2007:       Back to the Roots V2.41     -     Patch Level 1

Back to the Roots Reloaded:           www.back2roots.org Hello and welcome to the first small update of the Back to the Roots archive since our main archive down time. Now after successfully moving the project to a new server we have enough resources again to continue growing our service. To increase our update frequency (in preference to the rare monster updates we did before) we decided to offer smaller topic wise updates from now on, and group them to the huge updates you are used to from the past. We want to send a big thank you to more than 200 people who donated to our server hardware money collection. We will in turn try to give each free byte some honourful content. Big thanks also goes to the patience of all contributors, not to pull their money back during our rest!

Fred Fish Memorial Archive:           fish.back2roots.org First of all we started a new subproject, dedicated to one of the most famous Amiga activists ever: The Fred Fish memorial archive is our tribute to Fred where we try to document his entire life work project wise, offering his work (licensed by himself) and his cooperative projects (so far co-licensed by Danny Amor, Leslie Dietz, Eric Schwartz, Mark Stanley) for free download. The first 8 CDs are already online since a while, many further ones will follow. Site-News   - Fred Fish Photos - Project Overview - Download Archive

DiveAdx Homepage:           diveadx.back2roots.org As a second part of our tribute we host the homepage of Fred and his wife Michelle (and their dogs), documenting the last adventureful years of Fred's life cruising the ocean in a boat called DiveAdx, going swimming, diving and deep sea fishing. Just pure Fish. Site-News   - Adventure Blog - Cruising Photos
