Hey all,

There's a new "nightly" build on lsdev.org. This is special because it's 
the first proper build with Vista support. Also included are fixes for 
64-Bit Windows (XP and Vista). Get it here:

http://www.lsdev.org/doku.php?id=lsdev:downloads

It's the 2009-01-08 build. The version is "0.25.0 Alpha" - it's not a 
0.24.8 build but experimental code! In fact, it's the latest, greatest, 
cutting edge code from our CVS repository. :)

There are a couple of known bugs, as you can see here:
http://www.lsdev.org/bugs/view.php?id=42

Even though it doesn't, for example, run all 64-Bit startup apps, it's 
still far more usable on 64-Bit Windows than our previous builds. That's 
our hope, anyway. :)

Let us know if there's anything wrong with it (and I assume there will 
be lots).

All the best,
-ilmcuts


PS. 0.24.8 will still be released, despite the 0.25.0 build. We're 
working towards a final release of 0.24.8. It won't include Vista or x64 
support but it'll deserve the label "stable build".

PPS. Feel free to compile and post nightlies on your own. If you're 
having difficulties getting the code to compile, contact us.
