As reg66 said the other day we are a few people cooking ROMs for the Polaris but there is not such a chef corner in the polaris forum. So I propose this thread to exchange techniques, tools, etc.
Anyway I will use this thread as my own cooking repository and share as I learn myself. Feel free to contribute but please keep the posts ontopic. Most of it will be about cooking with 6.1 kernel for QVGA devices.
this 1st post is updated with the relevant information up to post 39 (take me there)
the 2nd post is about non solved specific questions in case one cooker can help another 5 (take me there)
Radios:
Please feel free to report radios tested to run on the Polaris (or links to compendiums)
Which radio to use? depends on the drivers you use...
Kitchens:
Please feel free to report kitchens and sys tested to run on the Polaris (or links to compendiums). Kitchens available are basically three: Ervius Visual Kitchen, Ondraster kitchen (two versions: old and new UI) and traditional kitchens (simply cmd scripts and exe tools, maybe someone wants to share a polaris non visual kitchen). Most of the kitchens come with mega packages, some others come naked or with leo packages. Choose the one that best suits you.
Gullum EVK's Kitchen wm6.5 23016. My first kitchen, I love it. Mega based
Amenatis EVK's Kitchen wm6.5 21891/28008 040C and almost 0409 Very refined kitchen, not only cabs and packages but a very well implemented OEM and Registry. Leo Based
osKitchen NEW UI v1.25 - Easy Visual Kitchen I tested and has easy startup tweaks and splash integration and very good description of packates.
TranMinhMan EVK's Kitchen WM6.5 with MANILA 2.0 at PDAVIET Requires registration. File password: TranMinhMan. See post 7 for direct links to the 3 parts of the file
TomAngel Ondraster's Kitchen wm6.5 builds 23088, 23518, 28008 and 28205 Includes both 6.1 and 6.5 kernel and is Multilanguage (check the thread also to learn how to use the wm6.5 kernel and seems to be working. It works nicely in my ROMs that seem to work better (as if it had a higher PP). There is not consensus on the performance improvement however. The main advantage is to avoid recmoding, since performance it is not so much affected and depends more on drivers. I personally believe recmodded apps open slower but there is no big science behind this thought. Check TomAngel's post for details).
niax kitchen wm6.5.X (by Nikkito) Spanish kitchen at htcmania.com forum - the forum is in spanish, look for a mediafire link in the first post - does not require registration to access the kitchen.
vistang's kitchen (did not manage myself)
Cooking takes lots of time. Be sure you backup your kitchen whenever you have consolidated a bunch of improvements. Sometimes files may get corrupted or if you change many things at a time, it may be difficult to go back to previous situation and also to fix the errors. Therefore, even if it is a pain, I recommned to zip the whole kitchen from time to time.
Another good practice is to keep a second folder with your kitchen tools, in case you have to restore the whole kitchen from scratch.
Kitchen Tools and Scripts:
I have the pleasure to introduce my collection of tools, ready to use with Ervius Visual Kitchen (and I guess, easy to adapt for other kitchens). Please check this post
Batch Recmoding (please donate to xtep): With this tool you can recmod automatically only the modules you want to, since recmodding everything will deliver a slower/bigger ROM (working on windows vista, includes instructions on how to use)
Tools for importing SYS into VK and auto recmod (please donate to xtep)
Dump sorter for the rollup´s of eg Da_G new releases thread
Create a custom splashscreen (steps 1 to 4) and add it manually (rest of steps)...or...automatically when generating the ROM
Pagepool changer (external, do not know if it is the one used in EVK)
Edit hv files
NBHextract (by pof): Extract contents from NBH files

WM6.5 ROMs:
1. Flash SPL: This great tool basically makes safe to flash Custom Roms. Additionally, procedures are well known and available to restore original SPL and ROM in case you need to send your device to a technical service without loosing guaranty.
2. Flash Original ROM (recommended by most chefs, mandatory if you observe inestability issues when flashing a custom ROM
3. Install your favourite custom ROM (most chefs recommend hard reset after flashing)- Some people recommend to removed sd card. I have long been doing the opposite flashing from the SD Card.
Please feel free to report ROM's links or compendium of ROM Links. The only requirement is to add a description of the basic attributes (preferably by the author of the ROM). ROMs do not include radio unless specified, follow the link to see the author's original thread.

Please, post your reference wm6.5 ROM in other languages
You are an end user? Which rom is the best? This depends on your needs. There is some posts about user experiences in this thread and of course on the ROM threads themselves. My advice is to try a few ones, several days each. Then you will have no doubt and that won't kill your device (I did not dare at the beginning but I have flashed my device ... quite a few times...)
You are a cooker and want to be? Do not invent the wheel. Liason with the cooker that is working in the line you like and ask him what you want to do and what is the best starting point. You will be surprised how helpful people can be.

PPCKitchen sources can not be used directly. A script is needed to change fileattributes automatically, since ppckitchen handles files in a different way.
Do not overload your kitchen with lots of releases since the cooking time grows a lot.
SYS Fixes (sticky in chef central)
We use wm6.1 kernel which means it has a limit on the number of modules it can cope with. If you do not get a bootable Rom then recmod some more modules. No consensus on which ones, how many or in which slot. As pcarvalho says, it does not matter if it does the job.
How to update your kitchen to the latest builds?
Does your kitchen suffer S.O.D.? My experience is that is not a kitchen or sys problem, it has to do with oem/ext htc packages (specially htc notifications and volume control) or start menu cooking. However, other people are reporting other reasons such as the tools used to cook or corrupted modules.
Sys description
Best explanation I can give is:
COM1- Builds 217**:
COM2 - Builds 218**: GUI is 1st stage of finger friendly features implemented. This is the only official WM6.5 released to public. All other COM* Builds are leaked test builds (not even classified as alpha or beta). In this range, the GUI introduces softer corners to various dialogs, the new start menu (Very early builds had a honeycomb theme but although the hexagons have been removed, the icon alignments remain), and the taskbar and menubar have been slightly modified to allow for further skinning.
COM3 - Builds 230**: GUI from 23001 to 23021 looks the same as COM2. 23022+ introduced the new shorter/expanding taskbar and finger friendly text-based buttons on taller bottom menubar and ever since its been called wm6.5.1 rather than 6.5..
23047+ introduced icon-based buttons.. New checkboxes and scroll bars and recently (from 23069 i think) a magnifier in the taskbar are amongst the newer gui elements introduced in the latest builds..
At some point (im not sure when, kinetic scrolling was introduced..
It appears that COM4 elements are being introduced into this branch such as the new contact application, a slightly modified sms application, and possibly a slightly modified calender application..
COM4 - Builds 234**: Seems to have stopped at 23420. The newer contact application and possibly the modified sms and calender applications were first introduced in this branch but have since been incoorperated into latest builds of COM3
COM5 - Builds 235**: At the moment little is known of this branch. 23502 is the first build leaked that Im aware of. It seems to have been compiled at about the same time as 23060 but with superior stability, speed, memory management, Newer COM3 builds 23071 and above have been reported to be superior in terms of stability and speed. However the latest COM5 23506 compared to COM3 23088 (build date is identical) seem equally fast and stable. COM5 builds have the new Contact app and Magnifier, as in latest COM3 Builds, but lack kinetic scrolling.
Apparently, the new internet explorer has been modified as well (but Bikertibi Builds have the old internet explorer from wm6.1 because new one does not handle well on our device)
Other branches you might or might not come to see:
AKU1 - Builds 212**
SAM1 - Builds 215**
MD1 - Builds 219**
WMD - Builds 28***: The First Build leaked is 28002 (build date 17th November 2009). As of this branch Windows Mobile is at WM6.5.3. This branch is to continue from COM3 23090 and is believed to carry improvements to the New Internet Explorer Mobile as well as overall speed
Builds 216**: leaked builds that have been played with by the team over at HTC but not officially used on any handset as yet
Builds 236**: Recently came across these builds but have no further info on them

Here I reserve a space to post apps that are optimized for SD install.
There are three ways of doing it:
1. Use mortscript to install on the SD Card. Sashimi great tool does so. In the mortscript source compendium you can also find a script that does it more manually (may fail on some devices/cabs). I never have time to "steal" the code from sashimi's. It is as simple as leaving the cab file in a certain folder. the drawback is sashimi's is kinda slow to launch because it does a LOT of things. btw, great tool to backup emails, wifi and so on.
2. Use sktools: it lets you move files (including dll) to the sd card and is able to create a cab version that saves the installation configuration (sd installation, registry changes, dll moved, etc). Very easy but cabs created can not be opened by all other cab editing apps.
3. Use Wince cab manager. It is more tedious.
At the end I will post here some of these files/links for everybody to enjoy

Using mortscript to cook provxml files with shortcuts and icons
There are several ways to customize the ROM:
1- RunCC: nice looking, can not be interrupted (if so is like a hard reset). Sometimes is tricky while cooking.
2- XDA_UC: mortscript based, has full support for tradicional UC config files (no need to install SDconfig). Can run in combination with RunCC or standalone. Has lots of functionalities for the cooker to create shortcuts, load regkeys, etc. but also for the ROM user (install cabs, xml or reg files, etc while you are using the ppc).
3- SDConfig: You can change bmp displayed as the customization takes place. Can be aborted.
I use 1+2 combined. I basically use XDA_UC to do the customization and control the Radio after first boot and I use RunCC to ensure the customization is not aborted.

As always thanks to pcarvalho for showing all our polaris can work with the latest builds and to gullum, the first one to share a stable and easy wm6.5 kitchen (and of course to all the people who developed and shared hardspl, customruu, cooking tools etc, releases, etc. but that would be endless)

In this second post I will try to gather direct questions on how to do something specific. It can not be something like how do I install wm6.5 on my wm6,1 device or how can I cook a ROM. Answers should not be I have read that or that but rather I do it this way and it works. Let me put some examples:
- How can I make top bar / softkeybar transparent with wm6.5 (I am not talking about a top bar simulating the wallpaper, but a transparent one)
- How can I sync time automatically first time radio is connected without wifi or activesync? There are many apps out there that sync time through a data connection but can it be done automatically with cell tower information or gps?
- I have to blips (short sounds) when the welcome screen pops up. How can I avoid the second blip?
- How you cook the connectionsetup ? can the files be in sd card and tell connectionsetup with the corresponding reg key?
- Where and how are bt profiles stored?
- Can I use roms from other devices? and other devices can use polaris roms?
- How can I associate apps with file explorer and resco explorer (eg. txt file with notepad, mscr with notepad, etc).
- How can I bachup and restore my bt pairings (with xml or reg)
- Which splash tool to use so I do not get a black band in the bottom, where the red letters appear?

Where are those files suposed to be so I can check? I am not familiar since I have been using for a long time Jetware BT extension and it works great with my Parrot. It is great if you have thousands of records and many categories since you can tell which categories to sync so it does not take a long time. I always include it in my roms and its open code.

I checked your german's rom posts. In case it helps, I have BTBPP, BTSAP and BTFTP as EXT modules and they seem to work. However I have them disabled since my BT connects to the carkit without any popus (only 1st time when building the association). In bt profiles (settings) I jave a2dp, hsp, hpf 1.5 (hands free profile), pan, hid, opp, bpp, avrcp, pbab (phonebool access profile), spp, sdap profiles.

Friends,
WM6.1 ROM (build 20275) is finally out for testing. The released ROM uses 12MB of pagepool. You would like the speed of this ROM. I had been making many Himalaya ROMs (see my signature). Though I had been making many Polaris ROMs also for my personal use, but this is my first public release. I am sure you all shall like it.
MAIN Feature:
This ROM can be dumped and recooked. Unlike many of the cooks, no RGU have been deleted. No DSM has been deleted. And most of all, the ROM has not been crippled against dumping by deleting IMGFS signatures. So feel free to dump and modify upto your taste. And share the knowledge with the community. We can improve more by sharing the knowledge than keeping it secret.

hehe SaBo but disadvantage is that my Hima is faulty..
Big thank you.
I've flashed this ROM and I'm totally unable to type standard characters in "Notes" and in the Messaging Account Setup Wizard.
Sorry, but I will have to use another ROM. By the way, it comes with some tools that I find unnecessary.

I totally agree with his, can fix us a cab to do this? Also, I cannot make a video call, can we have cab to fix this?
Thanks
ok 1 bug found is when your trying to change ringtones and notifications under settings>sounds and notifications, it wont allow any changes to any alert, infact if you try to ok out of the screen it even changes the ringtone from what was previously set by the install to the ring-WindowsMobile....???? and it will not allow you to exit that screen
i have uploaded your rom. so far there is a problem with writing sms text. numbers are working , but letters not. there is no phone keypad whilst in landscape mode, so i cant dial numbers at all. do you think you can fix it, and sent me link to fixed rom?
I think that this issue can be solved by this trick:
The main problem of sound files is DRM protection.
This is the part that we have to add somewhere into
registry (i prefer boot.rgu)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\LSOMACORE]
"Index"=dword:00000001
"Prefix"="DRM"
"Dll"="lsomacore.dll"
Cheers!

Friends,
WM6.1 ROM (build 20275) is finally out for testing. The released ROM uses 12MB of pagepool. You would like the speed of this ROM. I had been making many Himalaya ROMs (see my signature). Though I had been making many Polaris ROMs also for my personal use, but this is my first public release. I am sure you all shall like it.

Shekhar, I don't know why it happens: each time I try to enter a character, sounds a beep (the one that sounds when you do something not allowed). I can enter spaces, carriage returns, accentuated chars, and symbols, but anyone from the latin alphabet.
This happens whatever the SIP is choosen.
I have never had a problem like this. Could it be because I flashed from the SD card? it's my first time.
Ok, I came to the point where I would like to see if it's possible to cook my own rom. There is, however, so much (cluttered) information around the forum and I just have no idea where to start. I did figure some stuff out, but with everything I find out I also get more questions. I hope I'm allowed to ask these here.
Windows Mobile / Sense:
I am planning to begin flashing a rom only for my phone: Rhodium / Touch Pro 2. I just don't realy get how I can get the latest version of windows mobile (the on with the start menu at the top left) and sense (2.5.2015 ?). The stock roms I can find for Rhodium contain older versions.
Kitchens:
There are quite some kitchens out there, even those that do a lot of work for you. To understand everything, however, I would rather get a kitchen with only the essential tools. This way I am hoping to understand what steps are needed for the cooking. What kitchen would be recommended for this?
Terms
There are lots of terms around, but for some of them I can't figure out what exactly they are.
- XIP
- SYS
- OEM
Thanks!
~Sph
For WM, you should find the newest version of COM2 build, which is Build 21905 at this moment. It seems that not mentioned in XDA, but you could Google for that.
I think you should be able to use these essential tools, often refer as "old style" kitchen
ImgfsFromDump
xidump (ImgfsToDump) and DMP2PKG
osnbtool
BuildOS
EXTReloc
XIPPort
maybe there are more tools when you need to repack back to nbh format
For Terms, you should read Da_G's post here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=544445
I will tell you this....
read the tutorials... check the main stickie
read eve you dont understand nothing... then when you want to start trying things, you can ask.. with some knowledge.. the lates kitchen to date is Oskitchen by airxtreme and osbuilder.. i guess
Not to be mean but like +Que PPC said READ FIRST you should have look for information first and found this answers by your self ... Now about the systems and xip ext, sys, modules, cabs and all other stuff like that you will learn them when you start working on a kitchen.
About the kitchens there are various kitchens it just deppends which one you want to choose, all the kitchens will help you create your rom and customise it, and also one recomendation and requirement that you should have in order to create your own rom and that is patience and time, because you will need to look for alot of info and also looking for fixes and customisation and all of that.
Here is another kitchen that I recomended thanks to +Que PPC with the tutorial with videos in english made by me.

PS. Search & read first
XIP = eXicuteInPlace -- it's the core of the entire OS. Without it you got nothing.
XIP is made up of 2 main parts:
oemxipkernel - device specific
msxipkernel - build specific to SYS version
SYS is basically all the microsoft files
OEM is basically all the device specific files, and nonMS applications
If you have a CDMA Touch Pro 2, I have a kitchen here all set up for you:

Hello XDA-Members,
I'm kinda noob in cooking roms .
I have a problem with cooking a COM5 WM6.5 rom for blackstone. and I'm using osKitchen. hope someone can help .
I have downloaded WM6550-23563-Rollup-All-Pkgs.rar before and configured the kitchen as described in it's thread's How to use section:
1. On the osKitchen import wizard I used shipped BlackStone WM6.1 rom.
2. Then it said device requires some changes in order to work... and I answered Yes to this question.
3. I imported the Windows Mobile build and set the SYS Build. then it asked about automatic Module to File conversion. since I have WM6.5 Native kernel and it supports modules I answered No.
4. Selected 0409 in Localization Settings and checked Automatically disable unneeded/incompatible localized SYS packages...
5. Used LZX compression
6. Selected Essential packages in SYS Packages tab and RecModded Browsing, BrowsingCore and Browsing IE.
7. And finally on the Advanced Tweaks tab I used the WM6.5 Native kernel for BlackStone (found it in BlackStone ROM development section posted by Da_G) and Built the ROM. (also tried both normal and IMGFSToNB / ImplantXIP building method)
The problem is that when I flash this ROM, it wont pass smart mobility screen. however the 3 red R G D numbers appear. (I already installed HSPL 1.59 on my BlackStone and using native WM6.5 kernel on my rom)
Please help me with this to have a working WM6.5 rom .
Thanks in Advance.

@3 you should have answered yes... @7 You dont have to select anything... You have 6.5 Native... as you mentioned in 3. So no need to select custom XIP... i don't!
In OsKitchen Zero, if you import a shipped or stock rom,Port to newer SYS, and do what's suggested... and without any tweaks or whatever... build the ROM and flash, it should work and startup...
One crucial thing i learned in building ROM is - take baby steps, dont make many changes once: ie: straight update sys bulds etc.
make 1 significant change, compile, flash. If it boots, continue to next step. Tweaks can wait - get a your kitchen working and all the start menu stuffs ironed out before adding/updating to newer builds. IMHO, this is how we newbies should start.
If you are straight starting to learn cooking with 23xxx builds, its difficult. Start with 21xxx, trust me, once you are happy with your 21xxx build, you fill find building 23xxx is easier with knowledge you picked up with your earlier builds.
When the Kitchen ask you of you want to recmode some modules, click "yes"
It doesnt recmod all of them but only some that could make trouble as in your case..anyway:
Recmod :
Audiomanager or Audiobooster , i dont remember since im dont in front of my home PC.
Notification Enhancement.
If you dont recmod these 2 folders your phone wont boot.
If you are using the 23563 rollup package, omit the xip.bin included in the package. Do not forget to recmod Audio Booster, Concurrence Manager, Notification Enhancement; otherwise your ROM wont boot. Say YES after you dump the stock ROM, so you dont need to worry about forgetting to recmod later.
Hope this helps.

How to add a cab file as a package in your build!
First make sure you have the files you need with a .cab extension. This is the easiest way to do this. Drop the files into a location eg desktop.
.Open osKitchen go to Import
.Select button for cab installer file
.Press Browse and select the .cab file from the desktop
.Under Device Drop down select HTC Leo
.Uder Group select an existing group eg 04 Software, or if you want to create your own group type in the name here
.Under Name type in what you want to call Ext package
.Press Convert
You will then see a window with Operation completed press Ok
Close the windows and go into Ext packages and select the newly installed package!

Wonderful, thank you so much for this release. I'll get cracking on adding the things i wanted to this build and let you know how i get along. Do you want a copy of the updated Copilot cab to add to your builds?
Just in case
@GhostXSeries : Sent you PM on robotic voice.
Btw why are you on such old build for WM 6.5 ?
I wanted to give the option of upgrading the orgional builds so chiefs can have a choice. It was purely an exercise for me to see if it could be upgraded to the 576mb with office 2010 and .net etc.
I also had the phone on stand by with hspda last night and if my battery is right it dropped about 4 percent!!!!!!!
576mb android compatable kitchen now available for download
Thank you very much but now I still cant test your ROM Your link is very slow (
Please upload on megaupload.com, hotfile.com, mediafire.com, multiupload.com,...
Thanks
Sorry I am only going to be storing the images on VBN from now on. It is too much work to upload to multiple sites.
Downloading the Android compatible rom now, looking forward to finally having a nice, close to stock Rom that works smooth.
Keep up the great work.

I am currently working on a sense 2018 version that is also Android compatable. This will be up in the next couple of days. I have got sense working on the build I am just simply trying to modify the base build to tweak it a bit. I will hopefully have a mixture of tmobile 2.10, 2.14 and leo 1.66
Kitchen build has now got Sense 2018! As far as I can tell this is the first Kitchen to be released with Sense 2018 included
Hmm.. tried your kitchen, but (knowing not much about kitchens...) tried to find a project file (.kxml file) to load, but can't find it.
Can it be you missed that one? Or do I have to set up my own?
(e.g. an example ROM would be great)
One question: When the ROM is very small (eg. removed Windows Live and Office) will the memory for data storage be any larger?
one more.. Some imageinfo.bin files are read only. This gives an error when building (because the file cannot be overwritten) Is this ok or an error?

It is very easy to built your own project files. Simply select the operating system on the first screen eg os 21869 (WM 6.5) or 23569 (WM 6.5.5) then when you go into the ext packages screen simply select the packages for the operating system eg:
If you select 21869 then select
01 HTC Packages - This is the list of the main packages
02 Sense 2018 fixes if you want to remove the rss feader,
03 23569 fixes - Do not select this - only use this for OS 23569
04 Tweaks - You can select what you want from this
05 Software - You can add what you want into this folder extra programs etc
If you select the 23569 OS remember to go into Sys Packages and select everything for beginers, and select 03 23569 fixes. This folder updates things like the dial pad and the keyboard etc.
I simply tried to keep the Kitchen rar file as small as possible!
For the read only error, simply right click on the osKitchen folder, go to properties and uncheck an read only check boxes! Sorry about that I kinda forgot the check the permissions on the folder before I uploaded it

I want to remove Sense altogether, also I don't use Office (using a better office suite)
Is it also UC capable? (And, could you please answer my question about the memory gain when the ROM has less packages in it?)

Memory will be better the less packages you remove. If you dont want sense, you can simply de-select all the manila packages and the start icon loader package as well. It is not currently UC compatable, I have not done much work with this yet, but you should be able to download the cab files and add them in to the package.
What other versions of office are you using?
Just wanted to write back to say that I've been cooking away using your kitchen build and it's got to be one of the best one's I've used. I'm so close to perfecting my own Rom and it's all thanks to you.
Have you tried including the Chainfire 3D drivers? When I've tried it's not gone right (this isn't a problem with your kitchen, as i think it's an issue with OSkitchen and the 3D drivers from what i've been reading). Thanks again for this.

Thanks to HD2Owner for help with german translation.
Attention! By default ROM has Wifi in standby enabled. If you want to make rom much less battery hungry, disable it via "Settings->System->Additional options->Menu"
If you have problems with downloading, try another good ftp client/file downloader.
SMS Client bugfix for WWE 2.4.x:

Nice to see more guys starting to develop 6.5! Very nice looking rom man!
ultrashot, congrats buddy!
Maybe I should also publish my roms? No..... no way - I'm too lazy
Anyway...
To all - I tested that rom several days ago - decent work. Ok - it does not look like peacock plumage - but it's absolutely well-balanced and correctly-assembled stuff.
Ultrashot,
Thanks for the posting your roms. I was not able to find kitchen on the server..

Kitchen isn't available yet (read first post). I just can't upload everything in one moment. Simple maths:
2 devices
3 langs
2 WM builds
4 manila variations (No manila, TF3D 2.1, Sense 2.1, Sense 2.5)
I will not upload Manila variations for Leo.
So, 2 * 3 * 2 * 4 - 1 * 3 * 2 * 2 = 48 - 12 = 36 roms. Plus kitchen. Pretty hugh amount for my internet speed I should say
Kitchen itself is an example of how two devices can co-exist in one OSBuilder-based kitchen.

I am very curious about that, maybe I can rescue my forgotten mega
I have been developing in oskitchen for about a year now and development on it seems to have stopped! I had a look at osBuilder and it seems be a bit mad! I might make the desision to move accross to it on my next build!
Welcome ultrashot on the HD2 thread. Finally! I have been using your rom when I still have my x1 and I can say it was the best rom ever. I know you can also bring it here on the HD2 thread.
added a very little localization fix for WWE and RUS roms.
Kitchen is ready. Use the same links to download it.
Summary:
Two the most stable OS releases: WM6.5 21913 and 6.5.3 21690 with all fixes for compatibility.
Two devices: Kovsky (SE X1) and Leo (HD2).
Three manila versions: TF3D 2.1, Manila 2.1, Manila 2.5 - select any or none of them.
Customized & unique driver set.
The best virtual memory layout (for both devices!).
All existing performance tweaks incorporated. Better to say - all my latest tweaks and advices were tested in this kitchen first
Don't forget to check terms of use in readme.
Amazing work! Impressive! Exploring the kitchen structure since yesterday.... Thanx a lot buddy for sharing!
