Snapshots reduced in size and also 1004 Q?
« on: December 06, 2010, 01:01:49 pm »
Hi all,

I was looking at the snapshots today and noticed that they are now building at around 2.2 gig instead of the usual 3.8 gig!!
Is there something up with the build?



On a seperate note, i see that 1004 has now begun....is 810 still not in beta? what are the advantages of moving to 1004?

Yes there is, has to do with end of life for 0810.
But it does work, I did the 5 dec snapshot, and it worked.
1004 is still none of our concern. Do not get your hopes up. It is something the Dev's are trying.
You can always help but if you are a newbie focus on 0810.

What exactly does this mean for that install? how does this change the file size? is there stuff removed?
