Subject: Open-source Collection Mgr clone

I am pleased to announce the immediate availability of the Stockpile
Manager, a free open-source replacement (in C) for the Apple’s Collection
Manager.

The Stockpile Manager duplicates the entire Collection Manager API. All you
have to do is replace the word ‘Collection’ with ‘Stockpile’, so
GetNewCollection becomes GetNewStockpile. Note, however, that I have not
done any reverse-engineering. Internal formats are different, so you can’t
pass a Collection to the Stockpile Manager, and vice versa.

Subject: ‘Blugs’ (List Manager replacement) public beta

All Mac OS developers are invited to participate in beta testing a new Mac
OS List Manager replacement called ‘Blugs’. Blugs goes far beyond List
Manager functionality, as should be apparent from this partial feature list:

* The amount of data that can be stored in a Blugs list is limited only by
available memory. The Mac OS List Manager is limited to 32KB of data.
* Many library variants: PowerPC Carbon and pre-Carbon, 68k A5 and A4,
Pascal and debug.
