From build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).

Not a lot different to 10 tbh. They have tarted-up the previously micky mouse "Settings", now more usable and lots more actual settings in there without the need to dive back into Control Panel.

New start menu is a bit meh! I think I prefer the old one at the moment, though I have most things I regularly use pinned to the start-bar, other stuff start typing in search as before - and I moved it back to the left rather than the moving around centralised - though I can see that would be good if you have an ultra-wide monitor.

Don't like the new cuddly Explorer right-click context menu, some things I regularly use are now two click away.

Cosmetics like rounded windows - yeah things change, fashions come and go.

Slightly straying from the topic.. I installed the Windows Android Subsystem, and with a little fettling, I have now have Google Playstore installed with a bunch of apps. Absolutely brilliant!
