Last 24-25-26th October, Colmar Multimedia Expo 2008 (France) was a great success for the "RELEC / ACube Systems / RMS Communications" stand. Many visitors and amigans came from France, Swiss, Italy, Belgium, Germany, UK and even Danemark to see in Colmar AmigaOS 4.1 running on SAM440ep, SAM440ep-flex motherboard, MorphOS 2.1 on EFIKA & Pegasos, Minimig, and for the first time AmigaOS 4.1 on a touchscreen !

The OpenAmiga project Extended default mouse pointer types has been finished!

Download the result from the bottom of the project page or from os4depot.

Amiga-Look is a new website for the AmigaOS, MorphOS and Aros artworks that a lot of people create. The main idea is to gather all this content into one web site, so that it could be really easy for someone to find something that he needs. In this new website you will find screenshots, icons, themes and many other things that you would like to use.

If you have a backlog of crunched OCR25 done then you need to submit it now. The effort could end in just 5 days.

Seems that these last stubs have very few permutations and ~6,500,000 of ~26,600,000 packets of stubspace 7 were done yesterday. Read the rest for full details.

The statistics server was offline for 3 days, and it's back now with that shocker.

A new official statement of RELEC (http://www.relec.ch) :

You certainly have just noted it, with the new temporary home page, your distributor of Amiga Software & Hardware "RELEC" is designing a whole new web site. This one gives you already a good idea of the modern and sober look which will qualify our new web portal.

This new site will relate to all the products AmigaNG and Amiga Classic available, but will still link towards the old site (current version) for a certain time. This, in order to benefit from the quantity information accumulated during many years of service !

Since Porter/Duff style image compositing will be part of AmigaOS 4.1, I've decided to try and start a series of articles on the topic. Part one is now up, and can be found here. I want to extend this series in the future, and also go into the programming itself, including sample code.

Computer Connection has updated its Amiga web site. We have been stockpiling mostly used software and hardware for the classic Amiga.

People asked me to set up a page with a donation button for my AmigaOS 4.0 porting projects.

I decided to make it a page where i collect all the ports i've done. I will also blog about ongoing ports and stuff so if you want to keep up, check in from time to time!

So here's that page and that donation button, put it to good use! ;)

ATM just a small fraction of my ports are added to the database, but it will grow every day, and when it's complete, I'll start posting about interesting things.
