Hi, as I promised, it's time for a new release. But...
After a quick analysis of the trunk, I found out following problems which block the release: 1. NPFS problem, leading to a non-working networking (and probably other problems related with PnP). 2. Regress of the VMWare's display driver support. 3. The command prompt doesn't work for some people, including me (see bug 2201). 4. Icons rendering problems (Ged said it could be hackfixed in a branch).
Those 4 are quite important, and release is not going to happen if they are not fixed.
!!I ATTENTION !! Dear ReactOS developers, having commit access! Those problems must be fixed as top priority, in trunk. We are not going to branch for a release and keep copying trunk commits into it, because those fundamental bugs must be fixed in trunk.
So trunk is put into a frozen state now. Please commit *only* bugfixes, do not commit any new features, change something significantly without a reason, or any other kind of activity not aimed at fixing existing problems which prevent a scheduled release.
Thank you for your understanding,
WBR, Aleksey Bragin.
