For updates on Amiga software availability, read the posting
"Recent-uploads-to-Aminet," which is posted weekly to the Usenet group
comp.archives.
Also, check out the following Usenet groups: comp.binaries.amiga (for
ready-to-run Amiga programs), comp.sources.amiga (for the source code to
compile programs yourself), alt.sources.amiga (another repository for
program source code), and alt.sources.amiga.d (for discussion of Amiga
source code posts).
Note: By the way, the Usenet features dozens of other
Amiga-related newsgroups, including comp.sys.amiga.announce,
comp.sys.amiga.applications, comp.sys.amiga.games,
comp.sys.amiga.graphics, comp.sys.amiga.hardware,
comp.sys.amiga.introduction, comp.sys.amiga.marketplace,
comp.sys.amiga.programmer, and many others.
