AmigaOS fans may have noticed an abundance of updates appearing lately. There is also an updated SDK should be appearing soon as well.

One of the reasons for all this activity is AmiWest 2013. The show itself is October 19 and 20. There is also a “Classic Clinic” on the Friday night before the show where Amiga technicians will be available to help get your Amigas up and running again. AmiWest is also featuring a programming conference from October 16 to 18. The plan is to continue where we left off at AmiWest 2012 and focus on building useful applications with a GUI. It is the programming conference which is driving the bulk of the updates. We want everyone to be at the same API level and have all the latest updates so we don’t waste any time on working around any fixed bugs (for example).

Many AmigaOS core developers and beta testers will be attending AmiWest 2013. This is your chance to chat face to face with the experts that are building and maintaining the genuine Amiga Operating System. Hyperion Entertainment is also sponsoring the show and will have a table setup with various AmigaOS-based systems on display. See you there!
