<h3>Most recent news</h3>

+ <p> <i>December 12, 2004:</i> Various bits and pieces have been + cleaned up so that recent (2.33) CLisp can now compile Movitz kernels + just fine (mostly to do with CLisp having CL symbols with e.g. CLOS + as home package). + + <p> QEMU's NE2000 device seems to work ok with Movitz, both in ISA + and PCI modes. + <p> <i>August 18, 2004:</i> Movitz finally runs in <a href="http://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/qemu/">QEMU</a>, which is a very nice x86 emulator. It uses some sort of JIT technique, so it's much faster than Bochs. There was a bug in QEMU's (version 0.6.0) emulation of the x86 <tt>bounds</tt> instruction, which didn't agree with Movitz, and which is now fixed in QEMU's CVS. - - <p> <i>July 8, 2004:</i> The data-structure for vectors has been - changed. The vectors length is now represented by a fixnum, - increasing the maximum length from <tt>#xffff</tt> to - <tt>most-positive-fixnum</tt>. - - <p> The example GC system is changed to reflect the new vector - data-structure, so that the hard 256 KB limit on newspaces is no - more. The default size is set to 2 MB, and this newspace size is used - in the new <a href="files/los0.img"><tt>los0.img</tt></a>.
