@Everyone :

I have got many PM's regarding the state of this thread and i believe Marcel would have got more than me ......thats why i am sharing the Info.

Marcel have got the job he desired and currently have to move to CANADA......so it will probably take 1-2 Weeks.....

after that he should first get settled in there and should build up the development environment again.......

So till then i guess everyone should have patience.

Not 1-2 weeks but 3-4 months... but you know, it's not easy to immigrate in a new country so I'm very busy to prepare my family and myself for the move.

Thanks for your support and patience.

Some news about Alpha9 :
- Camera : you can now use a barcode reader or any app that requires camera. It should work.
- Video recording is working with some restrictions : not using hardware codec but software. Audio is not recorded but may be fixed soon.
