> Depends on what you mean by 'polishing'. :) Its certainly a variable term. :) Certainly a lot of work is done and quite impressive. I've only been on the list a few days, it just seemed to me that there are quite a few things left vs what the public website would lead to believe.
I ran into something simple - ie if no sound is present it goes into an infinite half-reboot cycle. Now all devices might have audio and it was because I was using Bochs, but it seems that it should handle that better. But then watching other notes and on searches it seems there are quite a few things like this left. That's why I'm inquiring, just trying to get a feel for what is left. > Our ship code (one of the many milestones we have reached) is stable, > works quite well and is complete for what it tries to do.

If one wants to develop - what are the options for getting hardware outside of North America? Will the emulation "Builds" be improved? Emulation seems a great way to involve more people, but we should have some better way. It seems many builds don't work "out of the box" and most require a bit of tweaking to run. Id like to see an option where we have ready to go Bochs/VMWare/VPC whatever images for people to see. I think this would go a long way.... I'll even volunteer to help. _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
