Stable version 1.0.0 released.
It's finally here: Stable release 1.0.0.
And with that, my involvement in this project draws to a close.
The last version of this kernel to receive more than 10 downloads was version 0.99.27, some 6 months ago. That was probably the moment at which the 9.0 release of Android became widely available for these devices, triggering a mass migration.
Merging each new Linux kernel has been getting progressively more difficult for a while now, with my first attempt often not booting at all. Apart from the investment of time this implies, which I can no longer justify for the handful of users still interested in the project, it's imperative to retain a Tab S4 on which to test, and that's something I can no longer commit to. For me, it's time to reinstall the Tab S4 and hand it down to one of my children.
The beauty of GPLed code is that anyone with a need can now pick up where I'm leaving off. My retirement need not signal the end of Modesty.
Thank you for your interest in the project and your support over the last 13 months.
