sqlite expert professional version 3.3.0

We need your help testing it for the coming 3.3.0 release. Hey, big news, the 3.3.0 branch is merged with mainline now. Otherwise if we were to continue with ABI, we would have to create conversion utilities from one version to the next which in turn sooner rather than later, break the source code of some of the main applications, causing headaches and wasted time attempting to retrofit the old source of the applications to the new system. Once we have all the drivers and the rest of the NetBSD applications and daemons coded for Minix 3 and we hammer out how we want to implement the application binary interface, that would be best. The way I look at it ABI doesn't make sense to implement now when we are constantly changing how the kernel and applications work together, it only hinders development at this time. At a later date, I am sure we can work on ABI and have no doubt we can work on it and have it ready for another stable release in the future. Out of the hard work everyone has done in the past leading up to this point in time. have no ABI compatibility at this time, in my own estimation is minor as compared to what has come forward I believe it's a wise choice to go this route at this time, it's about getting the kernel to a good place and get more developers in the door to work on this project with us.

Lionel Sambuc, on behalf of your MINIX team. Of course we will provide the required steps to upgrade by compiling the new system, but that particular step will still require to generate an ISO, and install from it, over our usual source upgrade. Given our constrained ressources, we felt it was wiser to align as much as currently possible in one step, and ask our community to reinstall from the developper ISO, which will be provided, and spend the saved time on new MINIX hardware support as well as continuing to improve the system capabilities. We are sorry not to be able to provide full forward, and backward, ABI compatibility this time. This will allow us to import more tools and have more packages from PKGSRC available on MINIX3. We are going to use this opportunity to adapt most - if not all - of the base system types to be defined as they are on a NetBSD system. We are going to switch the main source repository to version 3.3.0, in order to prepare for the next release.

The MINIX team would like to give some heads up about what is on the short term roadmap.Īs you all know, we have been importing a lot of the NetBSD userland, as we feel what makes MINIX special is not the tools one can use, nor the way the sources are built, but its microkernel architecture.
