I'm wondering about what's more important than homebrew launching in term of features but I fail to see it...
Stability, extensibility, portability to other entry points, and having fun just dicking around instead of rushing to release.

Stability is not a feature ._.
Okay, I'll admit that I laughed at this.Are you sure? Check Nintendo's update history.
Would you rather A) homebrew right away that crashes often, with a system that likes to freeze randomly (or bricks at random), or B) homebrew later without the freezing/crashing (and bricks)?Stability is not a feature ._.

You didn't get my point...
You shouldn't have talked about stability in the first place because it's not a feature, it should be here by design, I was specifically talking about the features...
Sure, stability is expected to be there by design for, say, something one originally developed from the ground up (coincidentally enough, like homebrew), however what's being worked on here is a CFW based around an exploited entrypoint into a completely foreign firmware. So, in an application such as this, stability actually becomes a feature, because this whole thing is hinging on flaws from Nintendo's code, of which we're not able to see the source.You didn't get my point...

Found a crazy vuln. Allow me to take this moment to remind people: IF YOU'RE ON SYSNAND 9.5 OR LOWER (9.6 or lower on old3ds maybe, don't chance it though) MAKE A NAND BACKUP. DO IT RIGHT NOW. You will regret not doing it in the future, otherwise.
That is all I'll say for now.
Hi WulfyStylez, this has shed some light for me since I am on firmware 9.4 on my New 3Ds XL, since it came with it. You mentioned to back up the NAND, but there is no current way for me to backup my NAND. From my understanding, the only way to back up a NAND is a hardmod O3DS or O3DSXL or through gateway (system firmwares 9.2 and below). Is it totally a requirement for me to back up my NAND for your discovered vuln to work? Backing up my NAND isn't possible because of my firmware. What are my choices?
YAAAAA WAYAWAA GRAAAAAAGRRRRRRRRR
WHEN ARE THEY GONNA RELEASE!!!!!!
You can get a NAND mod, which is really the only way to me/write NAND Backups. If she tells you to do it or you'll regret it, then you ought to then.
Are there any tutorials that show how to hardmod a N3DS XL console? As far as I know there are only O3DS XL tutorials.
They need more tiems. It is around the corner.
Please understand.

you must construct additional pylons
You should lower your expectations considerably, it's highly unlikely that the exploit eluded to will be used for anything useful for you.Hi WulfyStylez, this has shed some light for me since I am on firmware 9.4 on my New 3Ds XL, since it came with it.

FYI, I don't think the 1.0 version of the white list is available on the CDN nor is any of the other v1.0 FW titles.

God I hope that there's an exploit in Home Menu. KARL3DS booting at system startup would be the Holy Grail of 3DS hacking.
Well, there is and there isn't. You can get ROP under the news module (it's very specifically described on 3dbrew), but it's not really useful. News only has boss, cecd:s, frd:u, fs:USER, ndm:u, nim:u, and ptm:sysm. Thus you can't get code execution from gspwn, and you can't modify the chunk headers to trigger memchunkhax. It does have the SVCs necessary for memchunkhax, but that's not saying much.
It's usable in other scenarios, but those are outside of our interests since they don't cover all hardware.
