1. Second anniversary of the Genode OS Framework

The upcoming version 10.08 of the Genode OS Framework will be

anniversary together with us. As last year, we will gather
for a barbecue and a campfire on

  12th of August, Fischhausstraße 12 01099 Dresden

2. A glimpse at Genode OS Framework 10.08
-----------------------------------------

At Genode Labs, we are busy preparing the upcoming release of
our framework. On our mission to shape Genode towards a fully
fledged general purpose OS, we currently focus on additional
device drivers, a block-device API, a new graphics stack, and
our flexible C runtime. Furthermore, we are exploring dynamic
loading on ARM EABI-based platforms, which will make advanced
workloads that rely on shared libraries available on ARM
devices. In reference to the last release 10.05, we have now
internally switched to the new configuration concept introduced
in May. With the great confidence we gathered, the new concept
will be enabled by default starting with Genode 10.08.
