Out of interest, is Natami still a thing? Anything come of CloneA (aside from that scan doubler that used some of its AGA implementation)?

I haven't followed Amiga developments for a while, last I remembered it appeared the Natami project was parked due to some differences in direction, with the project to create a new 68k FPGA CPU splitting off into a separate project.

I noted that the Minimig AGA core reached v1.0 this year, which is good news, is compatibility fairly good now?

Who knows what's going on with Natami. Basically they've went off in different directions, and lately the forum for the Apollo core (the 68k FPGA cpu) was wiped. Whether that means they've given up or just decided they don't want to talk to anyone is anyones guess... I would say that at this point any good news from that camp will be a nice surprise rather than something anyone should hold their breath over.

I've not kept up with the Minimig cores. I'm more interested in AROS (though I check in on the FPGA projects now and again because I find them fun to read about), but have had very little time for that too lately.
