Jason ----------------------------------- I am not a developer, but i am an adult man, with some experience with team working and have been reading this mailing list since the begining, and what can i say? First: I have seen Alex Ionescu apologicing, often, so yes, drop IRONY, Alex is a great listener, and NO! it is not easy to find people who would apologice nowadays. Second: I saw the loss of focus in this proyect for a long time, with the largely delayed 0.3.0, and it have being people like Alex, Filip, Ge, Waxdragon, Tabor... who took the torch and carried the proyect for a full year. Third: I have seen Alex Ionescu as the one in the center of all discusions, and he could be fast to answer, but he proved to be as fast to apologice, and that i have not seen from some other developers. Four: It IS NORMAL, to have discussions where you are working in such a big proyect, not everyone can have the same vision of a whole OS, but what have NO sense, is to harass people for doing their work well, just cause there is not a F* paper about their "election". Fith: I thought this was an open source project, so people commit if they want, if they dont they dont, period. Harassing people wont grow the developer base. I have been following this proyect before 0.2 was released, i even submited some documentation and i wonder if i have been wasting my time. Sorry if i look a bit angry, but i AM a bit angry as i see several good developers force to leave for this kind of avoidable situations even if i can not (but wish) help with code. Good luck, Lucio Diaz-Flores Varela. ______________________________________________ Renovamos el Correo Yahoo! Nuevos servicios, más seguridad http://correo.yahoo.es

Change of Project Coordinator
by Jason Filby 17 Oct '05

17 Oct '05

Hi all I've decided that now is the best time to step down as Project Coordinator. The process to vote for a new PC will be - as previously decided for this type of decision - that only registered committers can vote. Regards Jason PS - I've cc'd the developers on leave as to not exclude anyone

OK, Time for a few words..
by TwoTailedFox 16 Oct '05

16 Oct '05

I've seen quite a few users propose ideas, such as a new GUI, or new functionality, only to be told it doesn't fit in with the Core Goal of ReactOS. ReactOS is all about creating a Win32-compatible Operating System. Now, later on, when the Kernel is sufficiently developed, we can do what Linux does, and create "Distributions". I had a look at the KDE/Ros Thread, and noted that a version of that, and GNOME may well be available for Windows next year. If the UI Team chooses to Grow, you can offer, for example mind you, a Core ReactOS System, with Windows Classic, and one or more "Distributions", with a different GUI, such as KDE or GNOME. Same goes for ReactOS in different 'roles'. Offering versions aimed at Workstations, Servers, or even for Educational/Testing use, would be feasible down the line.

I have been informed that due to time and focus reasons, Emanuele has decided to leave the project for an indeterminate time (forever?). I wish him the best of luck, and I thank him for his contributions to ReactOS. I have also talked to Filip lately, and I have understood from him that he will also be gone for the next month or two. Finally, in light of recent events, I feel that it's also best if I follow the example and take a break as well. I was undecided before, but the recent fight over the TC has convinced me that maybe this isn't the best place or time for me to apply my knowledge. I'm bit sick of being always the one in the middle of a fight. First I was blamed for always breaking the tree or causing incompatibilities, and now I'm blamed for project decisions as well. I really have too many things to worry about in life then to spend my life fighting all the time. I don't care that there are 40 people on IRC that agree with me, but when Jason and Ge, which are the two most influencial members of this project seem to be set against me, then I don't want to cause any more trouble.

Gudie Lines for SVN Write access
by Magnus Olsen 16 Oct '05

16 Oct '05

Hi I should love to see some new gudieles how to get svn access. Today it seam anyone that provide with a patch that is coder can getting svn access. But I think we need start think how we should handle it, Here is some ideas how it can be 1. A maling list with patch or in Bugzila I love see a maling list with the patch 2. When people have submit the patch to us we start examing it see if it any godd (we are doning that already) 3. To get SVN write access u need lest provide patch in regual basic under 6 month lest, Then after 6 month the provider can write to mailing list see if can getting SVN write access before he grant SVN write access, the full name and mailing address must be provided, and we should have a vote if that provder can getting SVN write access. no accpect from all this rules. Yestday some was granted svn access his name was not on the mailing list why he got one, he did not write either on the mailing list asking for svn access that why I want see new guide lines how svn write access handles. so every one know how he is and why he was granted to be granted after few patcher are not accpect in my eys. For we are starting getting alot with people with svn write access. And new guide lines must be create. BestReagds Magnus Olsen
