Haiku R1 Alpha 2 was released on May 10, 2010 as r36769
This page outlines some of the more notable changesets since then.
Additions and corrections are encouraged.

=== intel_extreme driver ===
 * r36941
 * #3149 partially fixed

=== notification_server ===
 * based on InfoPopper http://dev.osdrawer.net/projects/infopopper
 * still work-in-progress
 * r36949
 * #1245

=== IMAP Client ===
 * r36995
 
=== ICMP ===
 * r37647
 * First part of ICMP support: this is based on the work by Ivo Vachkov (GSoC
 2007), and Yin Qiu (GSoC 2008). And even though I needed to rewrite pretty
 much all of it because of the countless bugs and problems it had, it still
 shares the same architectural problems of introducing a domain dependent
 error mechanism to the upper layers, and needing the
 net_buffer::network_header hack. This I will rework later.
