- The 2.3 configuration needs some work. David will investigate.
- The decision was taken to not forward-port the real-exe code
from 2.2 to 2.3. Philipp will write some documentation about how to debug
real-mode assembler code.
- PCI has been tested to a limited extent. It enumerates devices, but
an unrelated bug is preventing further testing.
- Martin has cleaned up the serial and console code. He will commit his
changes tomorrow after he's tested it.
- Scott has looked at the checksumming code and will hopefully get some
time to work on it this coming week.
- Paul has been looking at ftr's debug code.
- Matthew will describe the new __initcall feature in an email to the list.
- Paul is thinking about a wide-mode bootloader.
- Dave is working on getting the SOM linker to work on i386 Linux. philipp
has some additional patches he will send.
- Signals were discussed and no-one felt that they wanted to deal with
them.
