[ES40-developers] New snapshot builds

[Camiel V. <iam...@gm...>]

Hello all,

I've made a new cvs snapshot available on the download page.
20080318_1530 has the following changes from release 0.18:

 - Fixed some IDE CD-ROM issues that were introduced with the
   multi-threading patch. (17-mar-2008, Brian Wheeler)
 - Restored SDL functionality. (16-mar-2008, Camiel
   Vanderhoeven)
 - Better exception handling, restored Serial port menu
   functionality (14-mar-2008, Camiel Vanderhoeven)
 - Ability to stop and restart threads, restored save/restore
   state functionality. (13-mar-2008, Camiel Vanderhoeven)
 - Use separate threads for devices rather than crowding
   everything into one thread. Use Poco libraries for platform
   independent threading. NOTE: This patch breaks some
   functionality that we will need to regain in the future.

P.S. I came across an interesting website, ohloh.net; they keep track
of CVS changes to open source code, and give an indication of what it
would cost to develop software commercially. I listed the ES40
Emulator on the site, and according to their analysis, developing it
would have cost $ 487,616. I think this is a bit too much, but it's an
interesting figure. Taken together all the Open Source software I'm
running on various computers adds up to over 800 million dollars. If
you're interested in how valuable your stack of open source software
is, go to http://www.ohloh.net/projects/12354, sign up, and create a
stack containing the open source software you use. Don't forget to
include the ES40 Emulator ;-)
