Coding and Sketching with Andy at AmiWest 2014...

For the last several years a few Friends of AmiWest have sponsored
bringing an AmigaOS developer to each year's show for software
presentations and to help users through the programming days.

For the last two years we've been glad to have been joined by Mr. Lyle
Hazelwood - the developer of Score, maintainer of the newest AmigaOS
versions of Bars & Pipes, the camd.library, SoftSyn and AmigaOS developer.

This year we're very proud to announce we've collected the funds and
arranged to bring the Amiga developer Mr. Andy Broad from the UK to
AmiWest!

Most of you may recognize him as the originator of the new Sketchblock
paint program. But Andy's prolific coding efforts include maintaining the
AWeb browser, the AmigaOS Blender port, AOrganizer, a port of the Perl
language and dozens of other applications.

Here's to hoping some of his coding experience rubs off on us during the
2014 AmiWest Programming Jam! We also look to seeing his AmiWest
demonstrations of Sketchblock and maybe even his latest (still secret)
development project.

See you at AmiWest!

Thanks,

PJS

I've had a bit of a rough day today, but this really brightens things up! Most excellent news.

@pjs
That's great news. He surely is one of the last very good developers, with many projects running. Looking forward to see him through streaming. Hope he brings his guitar too and sing a few songs there.

Great news! Sorry I'll miss the chance to meet him.
I suspect it will be quite a party. :)

@walkero

+1, Andy please bring your guitar along for the trip

Looking forward to coming, but there no way I'm subjecting my guitars to airport bagage handlers

If there one there already on the otherhand....

@broadblues

yup very true & actually thinking about it I barey trust those guys with my plain old luggage never mind a fine tuned guitar
