Unfortunately for the Amiga version, I've just been informed by the folks
at Maple that they're taking the Amiga-native version of Maple V out of
beta test "because the operating system is too buggy" and won't be releasing
it until 2.0 stabilizes.  So don't hold your breath.  I think the real
problem is that no one there knows the Amiga very well.

You can still get the older version of Maple, though.
