Due to land on the Amiga scene at some point in 2013, it would seem that the JetHunt AGA has been delayed, and will now see the light of day this year instead.
Here's JetHunt programmer Coagulus, with an update;
"Sorry all, I didn't manage to get this out in 2013 [...] - had some display issues and some silly bugs which stalled me over Christmas."
He continues;
FUSE is short for Filesystem in Userspace. FUSE was created to enable non-privileged users to run file systems outside of the kernel which is a big deal for Unix-like operating systems.
So, Jfokus 2014 is over. I mentioned it briefly in my previous blog, but in short it's Sweden's largest Java conference, with roughly 1500 visitors, 6-7 concurrent sessions spanning three days. The speakers come from various places, like Oracle, Red Hat, Spotify, and of course, Omegapoint! My attendance is part of Omegapoint's yearly field trip to this event. I work at Omegapoint, hence my shameless plugs.

A few months ago I started playing with the new Dopus 5.9 Magellan II Beta for AmigaOS4 on the X1000. Work has continued on a daily basis on improving the software, with kas1e and others working hard on it! I downloaded the latest nightly update version of Dopus 5.9 this week and played around with it this weekend to see what has improved:
Hi all and Happy New Year 2014! I am back from my trip to Japan, and fired up my X1000 for the first time in 2014 to find out a new game has been released for AmigaOS4 - Ace of Hearts!
Below is a label diagram of how the PCB is handling a read from the Amiga. (and partial theory of operation here too). As of 1/18/14, Schematics are coming.
I've been running some more Mauve-tests in the java.io package. The tests in java.io are mostly running, beside these:
So the very first A500 I had been testing on since the beginning of the project had a Bug Katcher installed. It turns out that I wasn’t really using it, but I left it plugged in anyways.
I’m not sure electrically what the exact effects of having that installed are, but removing it caused all of my instability and boot issues to disappear.
I was able to boot the amiga (10) times in a row from a cold start without an associated hang.
