Apache WM6 AKU 0.7.0 Kitchen RC

rspppcgeeks · #1 (**permalink**) 11-04-2007, 02:09 AM

Just downloaded and cooked a ROM. Everything looks pretty good except...

I don't have an Office Mobile folder under programs. The office app executables are present in the Windows directory. But there are no shortcuts. I saw a report in the other thread about this, but I just looked again and it appears that it was reported in one of the earlier builds, but folks didn't mention it in 0.6c

Awesome work vzguy (and of course kudos to helmi_c)

The Office Mobile folder is there. It is in the start menu, not under programs.

Verizonguy,

Where are the "others" that are working on the official kitchen doing their work? Are they using another forum?

A lot of the work happens over IRC. All of the bug reports and fixes posted on PPCGeeks are read and tested against the official kitchen, so everyone who posts is "working" on the official kitchen. When the kitchen is ready, it'll be announced here.

Not sure, perhaps on a private forum. I have been working on this alone. I prefer it that way. If it gets too structured, it's like a job instead of an enjoyable hobby.

This really surprised me. I had assumed that you were at least in contact with the "official" kitchen team, and this was a beta to source out bugs, et al. Wow. You've come out with what? seven kitchens in the past few weeks? Some with corrections within hours of the original posting. I am in awe.

downloading RC......

RC == Release Candidate. It indicates that the rom is stable and nearing release status. It means we're near the end of the testing phases.
XIP as I wrote above means execute in place. Mike Calligaro did a great job of explaining it. Read this if you're really interested. By official 0.7.0 I mean that it is not only running the aku programs and resources--it also is running the core of the os.
