Did we switch from GPL to LGPL when I wasn't looking?

I have just watched the Apple Keynote about switching to intel
architecture for their 2006 line. I would like to see universal
binaries, or things of the sort on ReactOS.
Hi,
for a simple make, the build process should not check if the path
%ROS_INSTALL% exists. On my system it points to a network drive, which
isn't a valid path if the test machine is switched off or is running ros.

With the news that new Macs will be Pentium 4 based (yes, not just intel, but Pentium 4 based) I have to wonder, Would it be worthwhile to continue working on a port of ROS to PPC?

Hi,
I've been recently talking to some contacts and heard of a very
FOSS-friendly place where we might be able to get some PPC hardware for
Art to test his PPC port on. They are Pegasos PPC, and they supply
complete systems on a varity of CPU architectures. There's full Open
Firmware support so it's pretty much like developing on an Apple. I've
tried to contact Apple (and others amongst us have tried as well) but we
haven't had much luck. Pegasos has a reputation for being much
friendlier (and also much cheaper, if you want to buy one), so I suggest
we give them a try and send them an e-mail about our project and how
much we'd love their help (and I'm sure it's a good idea to suggest we'd
put up their name on our website under a "Thank You" [by the way, we
also have to thank a bunch of other companies that have donated
equipment or software, afaik]).
Here's their site:
http://www.pegasosppc.com/
I can contact them myself, but I was thinking maybe it's better if
Steven/Art/Jason (all three) handle it, since they are official Board
Members plus Art is the one who will be using it.
Best regards,

Hi,
Not that I disagree with your changes (it seems they are necessary) but
don't they imply a bigger architectural problem? I've checked with
WinOBJ and the Section Object is allocated in paged memory... just
wanted to let you know this is why I made the change.
Best regards,
