     46As usual with all Netlabs projects there is also a dedicated ftp directory for release builds - ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/xworkplace/. Currently there are only older versions as the last official builds from Rich didn't make it into there. Rich also compiles special versions for ArcaOS.

     48In June 2021 I (Andreas Buchinger) started to play with the XWP sources once again. I set up a new svn branch (http://trac.netlabs.org/xworkplace/browser/branches/branch_AB) which is planned to be very similar to the official working tree (branch-1-0). But with a few exceptions - shutdown time is increased as it is definitely necessary on one of my systems. Maybe I'll implement an environment variable to set this time as some other users seem to have the same problem with the official build. And I prefer the standard shutdown dialog with the ability to customize the 'reboot to' partition names. The new dialog from Rich is undoubtedly advantageous for systems with a small number of bootable partitions, but it is unusable for my systems with 8 or more OS installations. Moreover when you add/remove another harddisk (which I've to do sometimes), the new shutdown dialog will get even more confusing. That's the reason why I started the branch_AB.

    48 If you find bugs, please create a ticket at [https://xtracker.netlabs.org/index.php?project=2&gmtofs=300 xtracker]. For the time being do not use the ticket system here included in trac but xtracker instead.
     52If you find bugs, please create a ticket at [http://trac.netlabs.org/xworkplace/report]. The old ticket system (xtracker) doesn't work since a while. If you have a problem with the ArcaOS build, Arca Noae mantis ticket system will the best place probably.
