Next Saturday is the RISC OS South East Show, having become a regular slot in the RISC OS callendar, the show is at the usual venue of Guildford College and we can look forward to a packed event.
The opening times are 18th October 10am - 4pm.
Despite the recent news about Castle / Iyonix Ltd withdrawing from the market, there is still much to be positive about. This is a chance for RISC OS users, past and present, to re-unite with one common goal - the progression of RISC OS and its applications and accessories.
We've heard that in a recent email, Jack Lillingston of Iyonix Ltd and Castle Technologies Ltd. has announced that the Iyonix PC is to be no longer available for ordering from 30th September 2008 (only a few days from time of writing). Iyonix Ltd (formed as a separate division by Castle to sell the hardware) will cease trading once existing stocks of hardware and accessories are exhausted. There are apparently very limited stocks available, that can be supplied on a first come, first served basis until the 30th.
Adam Richardson has released version 3.20 of WinEd, a feature rich template editor for RISC OS window definitions. WinEd is available from:
http://www.riscos.info/index.php/WinEd
Rik Griffin has released the latest version of TreeView (a Toolbox gadget for
developers). The latest version of this can be found at:
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/rik.griffin/
Also Dave Daniels has been attempting to get the PC Card in Risc PCs working under RISC OS Six and has now reported some possitive although limited success with some simple tests running DOS. He's not yet released details or updated software, first wanting to have something "that is not bodged together".

Due to the apparent dry spell with regard to RISC OS news, this short article is here to encourage any one whom produces RISC OS products, free or commercial, or any budding reporters / writers who've got something relevant to the RISC OS community to get involved.

As this year's South West Show approaches, the exibitor list grows. Since our initial announcement about the show, we've checked with RISCOS Ltd. for the latest info. Note: 
|
|
|
Until very recently, there were fears that 2008 would not see a show down in the South West of England. There had been no annoucement from the usual parties involved and RISC OS users were desperate for news. Thankfully, RISCOS Ltd. have stepped in to organise this year's RISCOS South West Show. Note: Exhibitor list: RISCOS Ltd., CJE Micros, R-Comp, Qercus. Orpheus Internet and RISC OS Now are also rumoured to be attending, although we don't have confirmation of this.
Given the late announcement of the show, if anyone is exhibiting and would like to be added to the above list, please add a comment to this article.
