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.

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

Winsock 2.2 Status
by Alex Ionescu 15 Oct '05

15 Oct '05

Hi, As many of you know, I've been working on Winsock for the last 3 weeks, then lost all my work. I have finished writing everything that I had lost and did some serious tests with MIRC. I want to update Ged, Waxdragon, Ge, Magnus and the others which were interested in a status report. MIRC uses some serious features, including asyncronous hostname lookups, which is an extremly complex part of ws2_32.dll. After fixing about 20 bugs (let me add a small note here: Microsoft has done some SERIOUSLY amazing work with MSVC 2005. The latest RC1 is now even faster, since the internal build system was updated and now supports multi-threaded compiles: ws2_32 takes me 2.5 seconds (officially timed) to compile AND link AND rc with full optimizations + pdb generated... not only did fast rebuild times help out during testing, but the integrated debugger just keeps getting better too. Finding those 20 bugs was extremly easy), I was able to connect to MIRC by using /server irc.freenode.net and join the channels, identify and talk normally. DCC transfer worked as well. Almost all of the ws2_32 APIs were being called, and both TCP and UDP (from dnsapi) communication seemed to work fine. In other words, mirc was fully usable with my ws2_32.dll My next test app is firefox. As of now, it loads fine but hangs at 100% cpu usage. I'm guessing it must be another small bug causing an inifite loop somewhere. Since it's 4AM now, I'll go sleep and check it out tomorrow. Best regards, Alex Ionescu

Reactos 0.2.8 RC-1 is out
by Robert Köpferl 15 Oct '05

15 Oct '05

You can find a new version on SF.NET Initial network support and some more complex apps as firefox respectively seamonkey seem to work. Against to what I wrote, there's no additional app included in this RC. I try to include some in the qemu variant for the next RC. And for the intermediate time I question you to download the RC1 and try it out, PLUS report bugs into our nice bugzilla!

RE: [ros-dev] Winsock 2.2 Status
by Murphy, Ged (Bolton) 15 Oct '05

Fantastic news Alex! Can't wait to get hold of it and read through it, and put it through some tests. It's all about the networking with me ;) -----Original Message----- From: Alex Ionescu [mailto:ionucu@videotron.ca] Sent: 15 October 2005 09:06 To: ReactOS Development List Subject: [ros-dev] Winsock 2.2 Status Hi, As many of you know, I've been working on Winsock for the last 3 weeks, then lost all my work. I have finished writing everything that I had lost and did some serious tests with MIRC. I want to update Ged, Waxdragon, Ge, Magnus and the others which were interested in a status report. MIRC uses some serious features, including asyncronous hostname lookups, which is an extremly complex part of ws2_32.dll. After fixing about 20 bugs (let me add a small note here: Microsoft has done some SERIOUSLY amazing work with MSVC 2005. The latest RC1 is now even faster, since the internal build system was updated and now supports multi-threaded compiles: ws2_32 takes me 2.5 seconds (officially timed) to compile AND link AND rc with full optimizations + pdb generated... not only did fast rebuild times help out during testing, but the integrated debugger just keeps getting better too. Finding those 20 bugs was extremly easy), I was able to connect to MIRC by using /server irc.freenode.net and join the channels, identify and talk normally. DCC transfer worked as well. Almost all of the ws2_32 APIs were being called, and both TCP and UDP (from dnsapi) communication seemed to work fine. In other words, mirc was fully usable with my ws2_32.dll My next test app is firefox. As of now, it loads fine but hangs at 100% cpu usage. I'm guessing it must be another small bug causing an inifite loop somewhere. Since it's 4AM now, I'll go sleep and check it out tomorrow.

Will we need to add entries in hivesys for ROS Ne2K pci (2) driver? Currently the driver loads but ROS dhclient does not work. All my other dhclient systems, Win98-2 and XP work.

Actually, come to this of it, you make a fair point. I'm dead against having application code in the trunk, as I'm sure everyone else is. However shipping a few 'enhancements' with the prebuilt release builds can only help with much needed publicity. (assuming they meet licensing demands). They can always be dropped as we get closer to the 1.0 build (where I think user choice should take precedence via the package manager) WaxDragon mentioned including some of our apps like Solitaire with 0.2.8. Although everyone seemed to like the idea, we don't have a definitive answer yet. Are we going ahead with this one?
