Faster, smarter - the latest Online Compiler
We are happy to announce a faster, smarter version of the mbed Online Compiler, which is now rolled on the live servers.
There's a huge amount of changes behind the scenes, which will give a noticeable performance boost to all areas of the Compiler.
mbed-fest in autumn 2013
mbed fest in automn 2013 tour in Japan was held in Nagoya (1st Ameyoko-bldg, Oosu), Yokohama (ARM K.K office) and Sapporo (SHARE - Coworking X Fabrication) on 14th to 16th Sept 2013. It is a mbed developer meet-up event. Attendees are mbed core users, beginners and electronics hobbyist. Some of them show demos about their work with mbed. It was a great event for getting useful information from variety of developer and good for networking.
mbed Connect Partner and Contributor meeting: Last remaining spaces!
There are still a few places left, so if you haven't registered yet, please do so as soon as possible. We are especially looking for independent developers and heavy users of mbed who are actively working on projects at the moment. Why are we looking for you?

We’re looking forward to sharing our news and plans, and working with you all to shape and develop the mbed project. We’ve had a great response from partners and contributors wanting to attend and contribute, so this should be a very productive event.
The day will include news and announcements on the mbed roadmap and partners, key technology introductions with a focus on IoT, formation of new projects and working groups, lightning talks open to anyone, and a chance to meet the mbed team and other mbed partners and contributors to allow us to work together on shaping the future of the mbed project.
The event is scheduled for Monday 28th October @ Techmart, Santa Clara, California and will start at 8.30 and finish at 5.30, with an optional evening social afterwards.

Information
NXP have informed me that due to overwhelming response, all the vouchers have now been redeemed.
The board is now available for purchase directly from Embedded Artists or from your local NXP authorized distributor. If you did receive a voucher but have not used it yet, note that it is only valid until 30th of October 2013!
NXP have announced the availability of the mbed enabled NXP LPC800-MAX board, along with a promotion to make the hardware available for just 1 Euro.
The LPC800-MAX is based on NXPs LPC812, a Cortex-M0+ that is aimed at 8/16 applications where additional functionality and performance is required. The board is primarily an Arduino compatible form factor, but as the LPC812 has a full crossbar for IO routing it can also support the standard pinouts for LPCXpresso and the mbed DIP form factor.
Component Database Kickoff: Shield Giveaway
Thank You
Thanks to everyone who inquired about this promotion. All selected applicants have been contacted and most have received their hardware. You can follow their progress here and soon be able to build off of their work using the Components!
Shield Giveaway Promotes Components!!
What's the best way to introduce new features of mbed? Freebies for the community! The new mbed Component Database hosts reusable libraries for different hardware, middleware and IoT services that you can use with ARM Microcontrollers. These components can be used as building blocks for quickly developing prototypes and products. Find out more details about the Component Database. http://mbed.org/blog/entry/component-database/

We've now put live another new feature hot on the heels of the Component Database - the mbed-enabled Platforms Database!
New Editor features - Now live
After the release of the Pull requests feature, the focus with the mbed Compiler has shifted towards improving the code editing experience. We are happy to announce a new set of features aimed at enhancing the Editor capabilities in the mbed Compiler. These features are now live.
Here is a sneak peek of the main feature:
Announcing the mbed Component Database!
The new mbed Component Database hosts reusable libraries for different hardware, middleware and IoT services that you can use with ARM Microcontrollers. These components can be used as building blocks for quickly developing prototypes and products.
Components and the associated libraries, examples and documentation are created and added to the database by mbed developers, component manufacturers and service providers. The goal is to create a database of rock-solid code and resources for many components that can be used with ARM microcontrollers.
The component database can be found at http://mbed.org/components/.

You can now add an issue tracker to your repositories. We've already enabled it on the official mbed repositories. read more.
Pull Requests are now being built-in to the workflows and are available in mbed betamode. read more.
CMSIS-DAP debug on all mbed-enabled hardware!
CMSIS-DAP support has been added for all mbed board firmware, so you can now debug your mbed hardware using a range of well known toolchains. read more
We've also released an open source python interface to allow debugging Cortex-M microcontrollers using CMSIS-DAP, either using GDB or your own custom scripts. read more
Professional and Academic Microcontroller Training based on mbed!
Providers of embedded software training Feabhas have chosen mbed as a platform for their professional training courses. read more.
ARM is running a free of charge, one-day microcontroller workshop at the ARM headquarters in Cambridge for academic teaching staff. read more.
mbed Application Board on sale!
The mbed application board went on sale in March and is selling like hotcakes! The credit card size application board provides a variety of peripherals which there are libraries and example code for in the cookbook so it is a great self contained development or training companion. read more.
Xively collaboration for building the Internet of Things!
We've been working with xively (formerly Cosm/Pachube) to launch their new IoT platform and Xively Jumpstart kit so you can rapidly prototype connected devices and co-develop IoT solutions. read more
