Btw, the monthly highlights on the Aros homepage tells the casual observer what is happening in the Aros scene in a nutshell. Imo even with the commits, the previous yearly updates gave the impression that Aros was a little stagnant.

Thanks Deadwood, for taking the time to do this. :)

Once I under the v0 branch again and I first need to finish Odyssey. Other option for you is to build v0 AROS and apply the fix manually from trunk (I can help with that).
