- Hi,
-
- If you've already installed 1.99p, I hope you can pick up 1.99p3 and
- test it against any applications you'd like to see run under 2.0 (be
- reasonable, sound and QuickTime will definitely not be supported).
- Then, send us bug reports about the largest problems you see.
-
- We still have plenty of things to work on during the remaining 10 days
- of Hackathon II left, but we want to be sure we don't overlook
- anything. However, please remember that we may prioritize things
- differently, so even if you report a bug there's no guarantee that
- we'll be able to look into it.
-
- In ten days, after Cotton leaves, Mat will resume work on the
- NEXTSTEP/Motorola port.

- NEXTSTEP (Intel only):

-
- In addition to the work that is reflected in 1.99p, I have also done
- some work on the Browser, but I have a few other mods I want to make
- to the System file before rolling a new release. We're hoping that
- 1.99q will be our last pre-beta release and that we'll go into beta by
- the end of the month.
-
- NOTE: I was not able to reproduce the slowdown that occurs when some
- people open DOS drives under E/D. Mat did make some modifications to
- our interrupt code, so there's a slight chance that the mods speed
- things up. I will send more e-mail about this particular problem
- later.
