The Rust-based Redox OS open-source operating system is now out with its October development summary that highlights recent software ports, progress on NUMA, and other enhancements made to this from-scratch platform. Redox OS in October managed to get the Go programming language compiler working on the platform. Golang on Redox OS is working both for cross-compilation and self-hosted compilation. Golang is adapted to use Relibc. Redox OS also managed to get the GIMP image editor working after months of work. Redox OS has also updated its Servo browser engine port against the newer Servo 0.7 code state. Redox OS has also confirmed its initial NUMA support is working nicely, fixed RISC-V dynamic linking, and implemented initial rootless package installation in user equivalent paths. Redox OS in October also simplified its AI policy down to: "Redox OS does not accept contributions generated by LLMs (Large Language Models), sometimes also referred to as “AI”." More details on these enhancements plus driver and kernel improvements and more via the Redox-OS.org blog.
