    4.3 kernel from hns

    I don't know. According to http://git.goldelico.com/?p=gta04-kernel.git;a=summary hns is actively working on mainline kernel support. Some donations probably won't hurt. And from forum posts it looks like the GPU driver situation may not be completely hopeless either.

    Release Diablo 2

    IIUC the update doesn't add new content, so wouldn't it be easier to use the version available on Pandora?

    Removable battery - another reason why it's a good thing.

    I don't know whether semiengineering.com is a reputable source, but browsing there seems to indicate that with currently available process technology we've reached a point where faster stuff will also become more expensive. If true that would be a significant change .and may increase the market...

    The Caring Corner :)

    Perhaps working at a Walmart for a while might make options clearer. A friend of mine ended up as a translator and novelist after several very different (mostly low paying) jobs.

    Port Requests

    I'm surprised, but it seems that only DiabloRL is on sourceforge (which IIRC is a FreePascal project).

    Oracle to open source Arm jdk 9

    IMO the language is one of the less important parts of teaching programming. C like languages might be less suitable because of surprisingly unintuitive syntax, but AFAICT they have worked fine for several generations of programmers. Java has the benefit of pretty complete and exact language...

    Email Client - Request for Recommendation

    Moving them to an (local if you don't trust your provider) IMAP server should allow relatively painless migration between any two clients.

    Oracle to open source Arm jdk 9

    Thanks, couldn't find that before. But that looks quite balanced to me, Google surely doesn't dominate the results.

    Really cool modular and freedom-respecting computer

    As a backer I'm very happy to report that my prediction skills suck and the campaign might still make it to 150,000$ :-) With 575 Computer cards and 113 laptops now at 131,005$. 41 hours to go!

    Obduction

    The next question would be: how well does it run in wine?

    Release Minecraft (launcher)

    I think that more support may actually hurt, because the game may decide to use a different - possibly worse on the Pandora - rendering path based on the existence of certain extensions and hard coded assumptions about their relative performance.

    "Smach Z is Back!" ...?

    Wikipedia says A journalist is a person who collects, writes, or distributes news or other current information. which would fit here. IMO this is an adequate definition.

    Really cool modular and freedom-respecting computer

    While I don't think that the goal of 150,000$ will be reached, the (known) MOQs don't seem to be a problem any more: currently there are pledges for 482 computer cards (and 40 pass through cards), 373 housings/breakout boards, and 97 laptops.
