Hi
I haven't used it too much lately, in fact I don't think its much used at all, or updated.
There are two branches or variants, one created by Ray Smith, and one created by Brian Broker. I have used both. Ray and I made a half hearted attempt to take it forward, but it never really materialised.
Having said that, Allegro is an excellent, fast, versatile, simple to use graphics library. I created a (personal) wiki to hold the libs, and various musings. Go to the following website to look at and download some stuff.

I may update this with the (latest) Ray smith version. We had some probs with the joystick functions, but in actual fact you don't need to use the inbuilt allegro functions.
I have moved on to SDL, simply because I found it easier to get SDL cross platform for a very simple slideshow program I created.
