I'm still at the AmiWest 2016 show today (Sunday) and some of you might have some questions.

Please post your questions here and I'll try to get back to you.

 So Steve, is the X5000 is officially released?
 If not, is there a firm date?
 
 And, when will the production of P5040 based motherboards commence?

What were the books in a picture posted by Robert? A forthcoming print copy of updated RKM set?

Hi Steve, I know you can't give timelines but please tell me that muti-core support for the X1000 is on the radar or at least the  'must do' list

@Steve,

I've the feeling that porting AmigaOS to new platform is slowing down the release of AmigaOS 4.2. If true will we see a speed up on other part of the OS (when X5000 and Tabor port is done)?

PS Nice to see that a new Filesystem is underway. Tony is a guru! Very nice presentation.

@Steve,
Is your day to day work changed since the arrival of the new technical director at Hyperion ?
In the past you talked about a new roadmap, is this roadmap done now?

Hi Steven!

Any news about an updated browser?
Odyssey works nicely but atm have several limitations like on google drive(that I use for work almost everyday) or randomly on heavy sites...

 Yeah, I already read that, BUT there is no info on A-eon or AmigaKit's sites.
 So an official statement would be nice.

Better ask A-EON that question.

Eldee printed those from the wiki as anyone can do right now. See MediaWiki documentation for further details.

Yes, it is on the radar. We need to ship the X5000 and A1222 first.

That is not possible since it is all one code base. We simple name it "4.2" when the time has come.

There has always been an internal road map but the more "external" one is certainly not out yet or you would have seen it. :)

Well, that is outside the scope of AmigaOS and I don't have any news myself. Maybe A-EON is working on one? :)
