An interesting statement.
Could you elaborate a bit more on what areas are giving you a problem?
NetMF 4.2 went RTM today - see Colin’s post here: [url]http://blogs.msdn.com/b/netmfteam/archive/2011/10/04/version-4-2-rtm.aspx[/url]
Porting Kit studio uh. Does that mean it makes it easier to support more ARM devices?
Sounds like that it is an improvement in porting kit.
The day has come !

Now that NETMF is open source, what does RTM really mean? Does that mean that GHI can release it as soon as they want now or will there still be a “final” release? It seems odd having an RTM release now that it’s OS. How soon will we have it from GHI?
@ Architect Indeed, It was late night for me so i missed that 
@ ianlee74: Release To Market means that they are happy with the source. It’s out of beta etc.
GHI could have released it when ever they wanted, but would have been forced to use a buggy or incomplete source tree.
But there is now a lot of work ahead for GHI to merge this code with their own code, hence their target of 1Q 2012…
New version of NET MF brings us things that were already available in GHI products. The question is: will GHI replace or reject the overlapping features such as PWM or AnalogInput as they are not interface compatible.
I suspect that these overlapping features are developed by GHI and the only inconvenience would be the different namespace.
RTM means Released To Manufacturing. It is also called the Golden Master.
Once the GHI Gadgeeter SDK is released, I would think betas of MF 4.2 will follow shortly.
But, not being a GHI employee, I know nothing.

With the additional features of 4.2, and the goal of keeping it small, I would think that GHI would remove any duplicate functionality in its libraries.
Agree. Mike, where is the bunny?
@ Architect that’s possible but if that’s true than why the new classes have different interfaces?

You don’t see the bunny?
It is my new “softer” image.

Hmm, I see what you mean. I have not checked that. I guess will see what 4.2 sdk from GHI looks like.
I’ve seen it yesterday, but today it is back to Mike Nukem ;D

I see the bunny… You might have to clear you cache…
