New Release - how're you feeling?
by Robert Köpferl 23 Jun '05

23 Jun '05

Since I am not deep in developement and thus have no feeling about the curent state, I ask you: How about the next Release build to put on sf.net? Is the new build system running well, already? Do we have the features for a 0.3? Will we want to do another intermediate?

New release
by jakov＠vmlinux.org 23 Jun '05

Why not release every other month... it's not nonsensical. It's agile. If no big changes: 0.2.6.1 If big bugfixes: 0.2.7 If important features: 0.3 And so on.

headers: LPC names
by Emanuele Aliberti 21 Jun '05

21 Jun '05

Hi all, this is just a little note for those nice guys that are working hard in cleaning the headers. LPC proper and related names are divided in three groups: - PORT_xxx or xxx_PORT (API/struct/macro for LPC port object handling; end user API); - LPC_xxx (API/struct/macro used in other executive subsystems or drivers); - LPCP_xxx (executive mode only private LPC facility memory object names). (I do not guarantee it is 100% correct; some subsets may overlap). -- :Emanuele Aliberti

nice to meet you

Hello, I am just subscribed, I do not know if I will contribute or not, need to browse the code and the website for longer to see. Now the question: Where is if any documentation to the ReactOS booting process in maximum details? The area of my interest is to try to create Win32 console environement build from ReactOS. That is no windows, no graphics. Only the command line, much like linux or freebsd after the boot. My experience with ReactOS has never been any good. I guess few years ago when I first heared of ReactOS, I tried to set it up, and got no luck. I keep trying every six month, and few days ago I downloaded the .iso and - oops, no luck again, it now complains about "cabinet not found", dude, this is an installation CD! So I guess I have to go down to source and keep the stuff under control. And the first thing I want to know is the boot process in details. If anyone here is afraid of anonyms my name is Yakov Sudeikin I live in Siberia. I like the idea of ReactOS and I just unsubscribed from other developer's mailing lists ([dev-freepascal] and [dev-shareware] got me bored finally) and it looks I cannot simply live without being a part of [dev-something].

Re: [ros-svn] [hyperion] 16198: fixes for Visual C++:
by Alex Ionescu 21 Jun '05

hyperion(a)svn.reactos.com wrote: >fixes for Visual C++: > > You should _really_ merge most of these (the non-hack ones) into trunk ASAP. If not, what has a large risk of happening is that: 1) Too many changes happen in your branch which are purely related to MSVC compilation and not to UMODE, bugs happen and we don't know why anymore 2) If you take large breaks from the branch, changes rot away and eventually never get included. So please, I urge you to commit most of these fixes into trunk and check that they remain GCC compatible... for your own good too. These kinds of branches can be a pain. Best regards, Alex Ionescu

Hey all I was wondering what the networking status was. I am planning on writing a small tcp/ip service for reactos to use personally. Thanks for the update.
