A glimpse at Genode OS Framework 10.08 ----------------------------------------- At Genode Labs, we are busy preparing the upcoming release of our framework. On our mission to shape Genode towards a fully fledged general purpose OS, we currently focus on additional device drivers, a block-device API, a new graphics stack, and our flexible C runtime. Furthermore, we are exploring dynamic loading on ARM EABI-based platforms, which will make advanced workloads that rely on shared libraries available on ARM devices. In reference to the last release 10.05, we have now internally switched to the new configuration concept introduced in May. With the great confidence we gathered, the new concept will be enabled by default starting with Genode 10.08. 3.
