Get your QNX news directly from the source

If you haven't yet subscribed to the "QNX Source" newsletter, I suggest you give it a try. The newsletter comes out only once a month (so it won't plug up your inbox) and provides the skinny on new source-code releases, software patches, BSPs, webinars, etc. -- stuff that, as a QNX user, you might actually find useful.

To subscribe, click here.

What I like about the newsletter is that it focuses mostly on the facts, without a lot of marketing blather. For instance, the first few lines of the December issue look like this:

New BSPs for the QNX Development Platform 6.4.0:

> Texas Instruments OMAP 5912 OSK

...


Like I said, more facts than hype. So it's pretty easy to pick out what's useful.

Disclosure: I've worked on the last few issues of the newsletter. So if you have any feedback, let me know, and I'll pass them on to the newsletter team.
