This week we did some debugging, and we are getting ready to release version 0.5.3 this weekend.
Read the development mailing list to track ongoing development.

This release include a few fixes to the previous tarball, and a binary snapshot FOR TESTING PURPOSES, although it can actully be used to run a stable Linux system on your Windows setups, considering it doesn't crash.

Please read the included README file before running.

I've successfully ran a full almost unmodified Debian system on Windows using coLinux, along with the cygwin XFree 86 server that allows me to start a Linux desktop across the virtual network interface between coLinux and Windows.

Screenshots, sources, and binaries of the first coLinux beta will soon be available on the website.
