(previous post was an accident) I do strongly believe in releasing before major IT events, to maximize the potential short-time increase of interest around ReactOS, that could be combined with the leverage granted by the event. My answer is - yes if we can make it,
Regarding current trunk issues, i have compiled a small list of the new ones (or just freshly detected): - general instability when browsing internet on Vbox, bridged (FF 2.x, K-meleon); - UNIATA timings issue on Vbox and some real hardware, resulting in random crashes in 1st stage and freezes in 3rd and later stages (when CDRom is used); - UNIATA bug: 7B bugcheck if CDROM is set to any of IDE slave channels (dreimer lappy suffers from this issue as well); - HAL: An invalid V86 opcode - in some real hardware - kdbg bug when attaching to any process/thread manually, resulting in lack of any debug information (regs, bt); More may follow 2010/3/2 Colin Finck <[email protected]> > Hi James, > > Thanks for your information.
