The AmigaOS 4.0 Powerpoint presentation that was displayed in Montlaur on saturday the 5th is now available. Go here (http://denis.troller.free.fr/AmigaOS4OnTour/) ...
-
Maybe it's this URL (http://denis.troller.free.fr/AmigaOS4OnTour/) instead? :-)

PowerPoint?!?!?
Why? :-?
When there is plenty software for making presentations on the Amiga, Like Scala, one of the most famous Amiga programs, and the reason for why you can still spot the occasional Amiga running an infochannel somewhere.
And I know there are more programs similar to Scala.
Just my thoughts.....

Ah, good, thats clarified a point I was wondering about:
The versions of MUI and Triton supplied with OS4 will inherit the new look of of ReAction/GadTools.
Or as lycos translator puts it:
"The same work of unification that for GadTools is in hand for MUI 3.9PPC and Triton, which inherit thus the look parameterized forReAction."
Yay! :-)
-
WATTS HAPPENING :-D
OS4 looks yummy :-)

The presentation is also available in PDF and JPEG format.

PaSha,
There's PDF and JPG versions too. I used OpenOffice to open the powerpoint version- works fine.
There's some good information in there (I know enough French and OS4 to understand most of it).

I like this bit in Slide 4 about the cross-compiler for Linux, AmigaOS AND OS X:
Le kit de développement C pour OS4 permet aux développeurs de migrer leur code en natif PPC (cross-compilateur GCC 2.95.3 hosté Linux ou AOS ou OSX, Includes OS4, Librairies clib & amiga.lib PPC). Un serveur CVS consolide tous les sources.
Which I think roughly translates as:
"The C developer kit for OS4 lets developers migrate their code to native PPC (cross-compiler GCC 2.95.3 on Linux, AOS and OSX, [with] OS4 includes, clib libraries and amiga.lib PPC). A CVS server to consolidate the sources." (not sure about that bit :)
(That's 5 years of French at school (mostly forgotten) coming into play there, How'd I do, ?? :-D )
That's good news, I'll be able to write software whilst in Linux, and through MOL :-P
But seriously it's good, nice work Hyperion, and all others involved with the tour.
Cheers,
Graham C

Congratulations all around to Hyperion on the latest round of announcements.
I will, however, reserve my best (and sincere) congratulations for the release day.

Agreed, especially since the Scalas I own have freely redistributable runtime players included with them.
They could've made an iso with the scala stuff onit.
to each their own I suppose

Why not? Since it's the tool he uses most often for his work and the one he's most comfortable with. Oh, and it runs on a Sony Vaio, which makes it much easier to transport. For the record, M. Guillard (loué soit son nom ;-) ) drove over 500 kilometres to do the presentation, getting up at a probably illegal time in the morning to avoid the traditional parsec-long traffic jams that coagulate down the Rhone valley at this time of year. Anyone in doubt as to the gentleman's value to the Amiga community might wish to do a little googling for "Stéphane Guillard". IMO someone that's done so much for the Amiga can use whatever software he damn well pleases.
:-D

Ignoring the fact I can't even get to that site at the moment, is there any chance of an English translation? My French ist nicht gut, as the Germans would say.
