ywg releases the r4iDSN version of wood together with the r4 and rpg versions.
I think (not 100% sure) r4ids.cn team release their version of wood with permission and they handle the code/cart specific support issues rather than ywg.
The versions must differ slightly to function on the specific hardware. I've found ywg releases for the rpg/r4 very polished. I can't say the same for the some of the r4ids.cn versions unfortunately. (having said that I think ywg wood rpg/r4 is the best kernel/firmware/loader out there, if only the r4igold's was as stable as ywg's..)
I really like the r4igold hardware (so far most problems with software have been fixed eventually and I've heard the r4ids.cn support is good) but I wish ywg released the software like he does for r4/rpg.
I know little about the r4iDSN hardware but I've heard nothing bad.

It appears as though the r4iDSN is not built as nicely as the r4i Gold 3DS from r4ids.cn. Look at the circuit board and the gold tooth contacts, for instance.
yesterday I got 'r4i dsn 3ds' and 'r4i gold 3ds'. They looks absolutely the same. If you remove label you can't differs one from another. Even a small visible pcb part same. Also I have use one 'r4i dsn non3ds' cart from october'2009 as a main developing cart. A big stress for contacts. But till now everything is ok. For example in ak2i that I used contacts died in 4 months. Fully. And I also have one transcend microsd card with died contacts — this take for me a little less than 3 years.
I posted pictures in another thread here yesterday. The R4ids.cn Team has a new "9" PCB and a new "A" PCB, both no longer contain an Actel chip. Please look down by the contacts on the r4ids.cn cart that you are comparing, is there a 6,8,9, or A? I'm asking to see if the r4iDSN team did a new revision also. My statement was made before the revision of the PCB from 8+ (9 and A) Please answer. On another note, you won't get an argument out of me when referring to the build quality of an Acekard.
I actually picked up one of each and the build quality is night and day.
The one from r4ids.cn is substantially better built. It weighs more and feels much more solid. I would say the build quality is better than an Acekard.
The one from r4idsn.com is not nearly as well built as an acekard. The pcb is floating around in the cart. I have quite a few flashcarts and this is easily the worst from a build quality perspective.

Damn,you definitely have some older ones.
Other than the arguable build quality, I read that there's one difference between the cards. R4iDSN uses NOR flash and R4ids.cn uses Serial flash.

Well with WoodR4 they are basically equal but I have to say that the WoodR4 on the R4i Gold gets updated later by a few days compared to the R4iDSN but I have to say that the R4i Gold has I think better build quality.
There's nothing scary about the picture itself. The possibility of the same thing happening to my cart after I buy it, that's what I find scary. Also, speaking of buying, this picture scares me off.

Stubbs is a pretty damn good sauce that I think you'll find on most grocery shelves as I don't think it's regional

smokey flavor that reminds me of beef jerkey on top of a really rich kind of bbq sauce. Heat level that is a nice zing, not overwhelming, but it tingles all the way down your throat+1

We all should have free health, dental, vision care, and make the college kids pay for the schooling, f that college forgiveness plan our govt doing now, its really not fair for all others in the past that had to pay for they're schooling anyways (like me, with 2 kids I paid to send to college in the past) -

I think we should outlaw healthcare entirely because the fact that people can get healthcare today is unfair to those in the past that couldn't+2

@Sicklyboy - the comparison would be forgiving all medical debt, not making healthcare illegal! -

Although I still don't agree, medical debt is rarely a choice, whereas enrolling in university is certainly a choice

College costs, college loans, book prices, the entire thing is predatory, oft touted as essential to a successful life for my generation and the ones since, and completely unaffordable without putting you through an insane financial hardship for literal decades in many situations.

Many of the same issues can be seen for the insanely predatory healthcare and health insurance system in the US
