• Haiku monthly activity report for May and June

    From OSnews@21:1/5 to All on Sun Jul 5 11:18:52 2020
    After the release of the second beta a few weeks ago, Haiku continues its steady pace of improvements and fixes. A few highlights from the work done since the beta release:

    Korli also worked on improving support for modern x86 CPUs, including the xsave instruction, and enabling use of AVX which requires saving more CPU registers during context switches.[...]
    A new version of HaikuWebKit has finally been released after help from KapiX and X512 to fix the remaining bugs. It uses a lot less memory, crashes less often, and has better support for modern website. There is ongoing work for further updates and
    improvements.

    There';s a lot more in there, so if you have beta 2 running, be sure to update it.
