Official Addons

All addons can now be installed via Device Update.

It's the same as Release 9 - but with slightly newer components... The available storage is slightly higher than Release 9. I'll get round to screenshots later, however the only changes are detailed in the changelog.

CRC, as ever, excellent work, but why have you split out 9.x and 10? Is it because 10 is using a newer shell version?

(by the way, back on R9, not had a single lock up AT ALL in 24 hours of moderate to heavy use).

The reason for the split can be seen in post #3 of the development thread. Basically, while build 19209 seems to function perfectly for me, there seems to be a lot of people who have nothing but issues with it. For those people who have issues, it makes sense for me to offer something that is known to work for everyone.

The split also allows me to have a 'bleeding edge' version for people that want the latest and greatest in everything. All changes will be made straight away to the Development build, then when proven stable, will get added to the stable build. This includes updates in included software.

I believe this offers the best of both worlds - the people who want to test things can get the latest and greatest, and the people who need reliability can get something proven reliable.
