0.7 is a stabilization milestone. Fixes and updates are all over the
map; please refer to the ChangeLog for detailed information. Three
important things to note with this release:
o PowerPC support is now on par with x86 (SMP put aside, but it's an
Adeos matter in the first place). Actually, I'm now working half of the
time directly on a PPC board for RTAI/fusion.
o The native RTAI skin is now deemed reasonably stable. "Reasonably" is
kept in the wording so that I won't make a fool of myself when someone
comes to prove me wrong in a day or two.
o The Adeos support used in fusion has been upgraded to final releases,
namely r9/x86 and r6/ppc. Upgrading is strongly recommended, especially
if CONFIG_PREEMPT is enabled in your kernel config, which is likely with
fusion. Also note that Adeos PPC is now rebased on mainline (2.6.10
actually).
Gilles and I would like to thank the people who were instrumental in the
stabilization process by sending a lot of useful feedback; they will
recognize themselves, and their name is likely to appear in the
ChangeLog already since they often came back with part if not all of the
needed fixes.
