Working towards the next stable release

We’re busy working towards RISC OS 5.30, and there’s a lot to do! Here are some ways to get involved in making it the best release yet:

  • Try out release candidate 2 available to download now
  • Try to spot any typos in the draft User Guide before it goes to print
  • Feed back any issues via the bugs forum or in a ticket
  • Candidate ports have varying amounts of work to meet the stable release criteria, and some ports might not make the cut

Supporting RISC OS Open

RISC OS is getting ever more popular and there are more people trying it out every day. While this is great, please remember that this also means an increase in the amount of work ROOL and our helpers are having to do behind the scenes, as well as increases in our operating costs. Please consider donating something to help us to keep making RISC OS better.
