This ROM/ROM kitchen is a work in progress. As such, the Unified ROM team has elected not to release the kitchen until we are sufficiently satisfied with the quality of the product. So, please do not ask for the kitchen. If you do not already have access to it, you will not get it.
This is the first public release of the Windows Mobile 5 AKU 3.5 ROM which the Unified ROM team has been working on for the past several weeks. When we (the Unified ROM team and you, the users) are happy with the state of the release, we will release the kitchen to the public. And then we, the Unified ROM folks, will go on a nice, long break from all this.
The list of bugs currently open is available via the
Unified ROM Bugzilla page. If there is a bug that you would like fixed, please create an account and file it, as we are using that as our primary source of remaining issues. (Please be nice to the server - it's not particularly powerful, so it might be slow from time to time.)
