AROS: First ABI-V1-Nightly-Build booted
For some time developers of the operating system AROS have been working on a new application binary interface. From today the first booting Nightly Build based on this ABI V1 is available.
Please note that this software is not compatible to existing AROS-software (ABI V0) and is only meant for testing purposes for developers.
The change of the application binary interface mainly affects AROS/x86 because for this architecture most of the (V0-) software exists. AROS/68k already includes most of the compatibility fixes.
