Yep, its time for the fourth development release also known as 0.0.4.
This release features the ability to:
- Respond to interrupts (again),
- Load in the core image and
- Compile the core image.
The previous release (the overhaul of the project layout) should actually have been part of this release, but it was so much of a change that I thought it was worth its own release, this making this the fourth release.
I certainly did a short silly dance once I had the elf loading done for sure (probably not a soul that's seen it, lucky me), because this was a point I was working toward from the beginning of the project.
Up next (at least for me) is the revising of the printf functions and the way text is displayed on screen. This actually might get in the way of Steven a little, but I don't care as he is on vacation anyway.
The next release is scheduled in September, and that might seem an awful long time from now, but keep in mind that the summer breaks are in the middle of this, and that I'll be gone for 21 days here.
Steven has been delivering code, but unfortunately this is not testable, and thus is shifted to the next sprint, which actually starts today (Monday, June the 11th of 2011).
We wish Steven a nice vacation and hope he will be able to make some good progress in my absence.
We also wish to thank him for the server space he's provided.
