In the interest of giving some point to this post, I hope to issue one
more test ROM ahead of 5.28(ish), and am just waiting for some changes
(wimp-related) to filter through the ROOL ecosystem. This should address
some reported issues with Diary, Praktikum, Eureka (possibly) and
Messenger (possibly).
Looking forward to trying the updated ROM for ARMX6 though I am trying the
beat ROM's on other systems.
The reason for the "possibly" portion is that there seems to be a bit of
internal debate on the ROOL git stream about how far they should go fixing
things for other apps. I think there's a fear that a fix for one thing
could break something else, and with testing hours limited...
The proverbial squaring the circle issue.
How much do you do to accomodate issues in applications which may further
add to other issues down the line or indeed cause stability issues now.
Some sensible accommodation is fine but there does come a time when for
the good of the OS and further development you have to sadly ask the
authors to fix the application if indeed they can be fixed.
Anyway good to know that debate is being had.
