NewsRog 1.8+ is hereby released as free software under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Please read this license (COPYING) and make sure you understand the terms and conditions of this license which defines under which conditions you are allowed to use and/or modify the sources of NewsRog.

NewsRog has been previously compiled with SAS/C 6.58. However, the current set of sources and includes does NOT compile out-of-the-box, neither with SAS/C or any other C compiler. Therefore, some initial effort is required to port the source properly to be compilable with gcc, which is considered as the future compiler for any further version of NewsRog. That's why the old SAS/C makefiles were provided as part of the initial CVS checkin.

If you want to help in porting the sources to gcc or contribute to the project in any way, please drop us a mail. Programmers should first familiarise themselves with the current sources and also with the included SDI_#? headers, which should probably be used while porting the sources to gcc and eventually to other platforms like AmigaOS 4 and/or MorphOS.

Becoming a NR developer also requires that you first register with SourceForge.net to get an username.
