Giannis Adamopoulos rewrote taskbar settings routines and dialog.
It's in the trunk, not release branch. However, I'll probably add it in 0.4.8.

That was added for trunk, this patch notes are for .4.7.

EDIT: Didn't see ctasan reply. Can't delete this post.

Hey ctasan,
ctasan wrote:-Fixed attaching drive letters while starting LiveCD, this enables successful boot. (Colin Finck)
-Register CDFS as a disk filesystem too in order to flash our ISOs directly to USB drives and boot from them. (Colin Finck)
-fs_rec: Many improvements for USB boot. (Colin Finck, Pierre Schweitzer)
-Fixes for ISOs flashed to USBs. (Colin Finck)
These are all fixes related to flashing the ReactOS ISO to a disk or USB drive. As USB booting still won't work in 0.4.7 due to work in progress on the USB drivers, I would prefer if these four points could be grouped to a single:

- Let ReactOS detect and boot from CDFS/ISO-9660 filesystems on disk drives. Paves the way for booting a ReactOS ISO from USB drives. (Colin Finck)

I think this is more understandable to the general public and doesn't raise expectations too high.
We can then hopefully write about real USB booting in the 0.4.8 changelog :)


Cheers,

Colin

Do I need a new account to get access to Community Edition?
The above changelog has information on audio.
How is the audio support of ReactOS?
When I install ReactOS on VirtualBox, I don't get the audio system to work automatically.
Am I missing something ?

Adcock, all your questions should be separate topics of their own. Your questions about ReactOS's support of audio output will fit best in the Support forum. Your other questions should be one or more separate topics in this General Discussion and Feedback forum. In this topic, we should keep the discussion focused on the contents of Community Changelog: 0.4.7.

I think he was referring to Colin's comment because he left out Pierre in the credits, but you included it in the changelog, so no worries.
