As promised, the first update for Icaros Desktop 1.2 has been released. This update CD includes the most updated system files (up to march 6, 2010 nightly build) and some interesting new features like (still work in progress) 3D hardware acceleration on GeForce 5, 6 and 7 cards (both AGP and PCI Express versions supported), changeable pointers, .backdrop file support for placing icons on the desktop and many, many others.

Due to the fast Development on AROS it is time to update the SDKs again.

You can do that now with this release of a new unified DevPak with the Software Development Kits for all AROS flavours.

The YAM (Yet Another Mailer) open source development team is pleased to announce the immediate release of its stable 2.6 version. After more than 2 years of constant, restless development, the 2.6 version is the currently most stable and most advanced version of the famous Amiga e-mail suite.

For the first time ever YAM is not only available for the well known Amiga (and alike) plattform, but also for 3 different flavours of the AROS plattform.

Here is a brief list of the most important changes since the 2.5 release:

After a long time I have decided to revive the AROS World Gift Shop. The site is hosted on Cafepress, so all the transactions are secured under their web portal.
