Following the recent new version of AROS-Max a new homepage for it can now be found at www.AROS-Max.co.uk.

At the moment it's early days, but in time I'll be adding a FAQ for beginners and pointers to the other places it can be found (and no doubt more after that) so keep an eye on it's progress.

Georg Steger has updated the NList class in contrib to the latest CVS sources, finally bringing the NListtree class to AROS,he has also ported the Toolbar.mcc class.

A preview can be watched here:

Martin Blom has released AHI 5.13,you can get the AROS version from herehttp://www.lysator.liu.se/~lcs/files/ahi/beta/

SoX, the swiss army knife of sound file conversion utilities, has been
ported to AROS. The diffs have been checked in (contrib/audio/sox), and a
mmakefile still needs to be created to build using the AROS build system, but it compiles with a GCC cross compiler and functions under AROS. The homepage
for SoX is at:

Enjoy,

Released VIM 6.3 for AROS. This is a straight compile of the mainline 6.3 sources, no AROS-specific improvements have been made since 6.2.532 (and the previous patches were accepted into mainline in time for the 6.3 release).

"whoosh" has ported A.F.P.L Ghostscript 8.13 to AROS! read more and download the archive at his webpage.

I released VIM 6.2.532 for AROS some days ago (but somehow forgot to post here). Grab the archives (you'll need atleast the 'rt' and 'x86' ones to run VIM) or just have a loot at the screenshot.

Biggest change since the last unofficial (only announced on the AROS Developers ML) release are big fixes to the GUI mode by Georg Steger. It works quite nicely now (atleast a lot better than console mode.

The patches have been sent upstream and accepted into the tree, so they will be included in VIM 6.3 final.

Today, AmigaShare announces that it has included additional platform support that relates to uploaded software. That is, the Software Library now allows software items to show additional emulation/VM compatibility.
