#GlobalTalk admins and users!
[Boost please!]

This is an “Apple Internet Router Administrator’s Guide—Addendum (Second Edition) – RFI”

It’s finally time to turn my attention to updating the Addendum to the AIR manual I released last year (along with the scanned and OCRed original manual).

This is a GlobalTalk-specific “request for input” on modifications and additions people might like to see, pretty well in line with the sections already present. Please DM me here with suggestions.

I’ll then work on what I can include and release near the end of the month.

Alongside this work, I’ll be releasing some updates to my emulation-based setup files (disk images can be used on real hardware).

These will remain 7.1-focussed (there are 7.6 images elsewhere).

Currently all these files are on Google Drive, but in parallel to the release of the next edition of the Addendum and setup files, they will all move to my (Unofficial) GlobalTalk Wiki at https://globaltalk.wiki (feel free to sign up for a sub-wiki there if you run a GlobalTalk node/network/zone – it works via http in Classical, too).

There’s been lots of exciting changes and announcements since last year (including my Wiki!), so I’m really looking forward to documenting the continued development of GlobalTalk, which doesn’t stop on 31 March each year.

Hope you’re all having fun on the network!

#GlobalTalk #MARCHintosh

Was asked today, as an icebreaker, to share what I was currently obsessed with.

My answer: The design and function of these wooden (Pacific) halibut hooks that have used by the communities of the northwest coast of the US for thousands of years: https://hakaimagazine.com/features/the-halibut-hook-revival/

I went to see these examples, from the Haida, at the Museum of Anthropology at UBC, yesterday.

And it’s time for my fourth and final #MARCHintosh project for 2026, TalkCrawler AD. It’s an After Dark Module for TalkCrawler that will let you watch #GlobalTalk leisurely scroll past in one of two different styles

There is a standalone version as well if you don't want to install After Dark

Note you will need to run a re-scan in TalkCrawler Lite 1.4 (just released) before it can show anything
