Hello,

What would be the best group to ask the following two questions:

a) I am looking for the current release notes for the current snap shot of 4.6.
   I realize this has not been release but i assume there are release notes of
   changes already implemented (this might be a bad assumption). Mostly I'm
   looking for what new devices will be supported (trying to pick a motherboard
   to replace my old p100 -- likely an abit nv7-133 or asus a7v333 - and wanted
   to check if 4.6 (to date) will support the via chipset (I've heard the older
   chipsets are buggy) or the on-board devices of the nv7-133 (4.5 appears to
   not support them)...

b) I'm considering one of two mother-boards: abit nv7-133 or asus a7v333. It
   looks like the a7v333 on board devices are supported in 4.5 but I've heard
   bad things about the earlier via chipsets (but maybe the kt333 is more 
   stable).

   The nv7-133 uses the navida chipset but it appears 4.5 does not support the
   onboard sound/nic.

   Does anyone know if 4.5 or 4.6 would be stable on either of these two
   platforms?

   I currently run 2.2.7 on a p100.
