After careful deliberation and many discussions between developers from all sections of the Amiga community the decision has been made to revive the OpenAmiga project.

The OpenAmiga Standard is intended to minimize the programming effort needed to port between the four current Amiga platforms, Amiga OS 3.x, AROS, MorphOS and AmigaOS 4.

It is a collection of API's that developers can target safe in the knowledge that their software written on one platform can be compiled and run as intended on an alternative platform that adheres to the standard.... (Please click 'Read more'.)


Please feel free to visit our website and provide feedback as the standard is not set in stone yet.

We're currently focusing on the development of a new SDK, which we plan to release as soon as possible.

That sounds cool - I wish I had the time to help out with that sort of stuff - but I just don't. Still have the Amiga running from time to time but the network connection died a few months back and I haven't even had time to diagnose that and get it going again.

I still like to play with it from time to time just for the heck of it - double click something and watch windows pop up instantly and say to myself - I can't believe it's not a 3GHz quad core with 8GB of RAM!!!

I haven't really ever had that much time - about the most I ever did was submit some patches for SimpleMail. I'm still on the dev list - I've still got a gripe list of bad crashes from stupid pointers that really shouldn't be that hard to fix but ...

Sorry - I'm going off on a tangent!
 
Indeed. I hoped I'd be able to get into a bit of Amiga programming but haven't had the time to learn how to do anything useful yet. Maybe one day.....

It's a great system to learn on. I probably wouldn't be a programmer today if I had a Windows box instead when I was a kid.
