Amiga Users & User Groups

I try to avoid cross posting, but I made an exception to reach as many users as possible.

Occasionally there are posts asking about a user group or other users in a particular area. With the volume of posts these threads usually don't last too long on the front page and fail to gather much momentum. I decided to gather up a few of the more recent posts that I could find and create a thread that can hopefully act as a base for individuals looking for users or groups in their area.

There is an extensive list of user groups on the AmigaOS.net website. If you haven't visited lately, stop by for a look. http://www.amigaos.net/content/12/user-groups

Here are a few threads I was able to locate:

Kentucky - http://amigaworld.net/modules/newbb/v ... c_id=42417&forum=2#808905

Wisconsin - http://www.amiga.org/forums/showthread.php?t=73301

Des Moines, Iowa - http://www.amiga.org/forums/showthread.php?t=73235

San Diego / Orange County - http://www.amiga.org/forums/showthread.php?t=71690

If you are a member of a user group that isn't mentioned please post the details of your group. If you're looking for other users in your area please reply as well.

As spotted by RobertB on Amiga.org:

Not included in the list is The Other Group of Amigoids which holds monthly meetings in San Jose, California. http://togausergroup.org

Thanks for the list. Just a quick information. I tried to visit the japanese user group site and I miss the japanese font for owb and,I guess, also for the system.. are they available for amiga os?

I tried to install the japanese font and keyboard that i found on os4depot but it doesn't work with owb.. I set OWB with utf-8 support up but it didn't work... any hint on how to display japanese font?

Unfortunately no, but I will ask around and see if I can come up with any suggestions on a solution.

Thanks

@nubechecorre

What's the URL for the website?

@Sbaitso

Des Moines is not Amiga, just 64/128.

@mritter0

Thanks for the heads up. I will update the other posts.

@nubechecorre

Any font with the correct Unicode characters in it should work.

Try the Code2000 font, that has most things including Japanese.
