GSoC 2016 interest on RAPPS and GUI installer

by Niebieski Poganiac

Hello everyone. I'm Niebieski from freenode. I like Free Software and thus believe that a free software OS that is binary compatible with Windows will be huge contribution to the computing world. When I saw ReactOS on the orgs list in GSoC I totally considered checking the possibility of working with you guys. I'm interested on RAPPS and the GUI installer. Why ? It's clear that it's easy to install Windows because of the GUI installer, is it the easiest OS installer ever ? If you insert a bootable Windows media and kept pressing ENTER, you will probably end up with an installed system. So I think the GUI installer is a big step into ease of use. For RAPPS, it's essential utility. Lets you install apps without searching their names one by one on a search engine. or even give me a script that installs my favourite tools ? It's also a good way to discover new good software, specially if it's GPL software. Note that I'm talking about end-user point of view. I've seen the document made by Amine Khaldi about RAPPS. I've tried to get familiar with the WIN32 API a couple of years ago. Why ? because I like low level GUI stuff and then tried out GTK and Qt when I used Linux. I found out about Charles Petzold's book. I like C that's why I liked WIN32 API at first. The latest code I wrote was mainly academic assignments, A Caesar cipher implementation and a multi-threaded sorting program using pthread library. Note that I didn't develop something serious using WIN32 API I just read some tutorials but didn't build something. I know handles, WinMain and these basic stuff. so honestly I don't have any 'real' development experience. but I've tried to contribute to several open source orgs. I'm pursuing my bachelor degree in computer engineering and going to submit my senior project implementation during May/June. I might register for summer courses. I would like to have your honest opinions, do you think I should drop it ? or continue and try to find how it's going to be done technically ? and submit a proposal ? I've seen that some people are already interested on RAPPS and doing good job. Thank you guys for the work on ReactOS and the time spent on helping GSoC students. I really appreciate it and hope you the best.

Fwd: [Supertuxkart-devel] Get STK running into ReactOS

by Javier Agustìn Fernàndez Arroyo

This is the STK main developer answer... ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: M Gagnon <auria.mg(a)gmail.com> Date: Fri, Mar 18, 2016 at 10:54 PM Subject: Re: [Supertuxkart-devel] Get STK running into ReactOS To: supertuxkart-devel(a)lists.sourceforge.net Hi, we only use "supported" for systems where a regular team member frequently tests and ensures the game works correctly.

Get STK running into ReactOS

by Javier Agustìn Fernàndez Arroyo

Hello, STK users and devs, First of all, i´m new to this mailing list, so i hope not to disturb it... I´m a fan of SuperTuxKart both in Linux (Ubuntu) and Windows. And i´m also a fan and user of the new operating system Reactos. http://www.reactos.org Yes, i do love open source. I hae seen in your homepage that you bring binaries for Windows XP. You all know XP ended support long ago. And here is where ReactOS comes in place. ReactOS aims to clone Windows 2003 behavior (and, as you know, 2k3 and XP are quite similar). So my request is simple. I think it would be asesome if your game runs in this OS. And if not, its a bug that ReactOS devs have to fix. What would help development too. What do u think? is it worth to give STK a try into ReactOS? what about putting this OS as a supported one, along with XP? Thanks in advance for your attention.

Question about TCP/IP

by MarylandenyChu

Hi, I'd like to apply for "Fully Integrate lwIP" part this year. I noticed that in last year's idea list, this part is performed as another way: making a own TCP/IP implementation. I don't know why we change the direction to make fully integrate lwIP. Does it because that it seems very hard to finish? Can I have the answers?

Student Application for GSoC2016

by Viacheslav Lebedev

My name is Viacheslav (or just Slava). Firstly I want to say that I don’t have any special IT education and I am not a student already. I did not find such limitations in the description, but it seems that it is only for undergraduate students. I worked as a C++ programmer for 4.5 years. My job was to support the old projects. I don’t have any special skills. Do I have any chance to join you? *General info* Full Name: Viacheslav Lebedev Language: Russian and English (I don’t know my English level) Time Zone: UTC +3 ReactOS website Account Name: I don’t have it and don’t see the way to get it. *Time commitment* I don’t have plans in summer, but I have a job. If it will be necessary I can try to take a vacation or even leave it. *Proposed Project* I am a new here and it is too early for me to have my own idea. I think the only I can try is Search Band in Explorer. On Saturday, I saw Folder Treeview, but now it’s absent. Probably, it is also Applications Manager Rapps. I could try something special like Integrating SMB or Audio Mixer, but I am afraid I’ll fail it.

GSoC 2016: USB 3.0 Support

by Vardan Mikayelyan

Hi, My name is Vardan, I am from National Polytechnic University of Armenia, and this is my 5th year here. I'm student of 1st course of master program. In parallel to studying I am contributing Linux USB stack and have community accepted commits which are presented in Linux 4.5-rc4. I saw ReactOS in GSoC organizations list, and it interested me as great place to learn and grow as professional developer. I am interested in driver development and especially I like USB stack. Because USB supports many kinds of transfers and USB protocols are interesting by themselves. I have investigated dwc2 driver in Linux Kernel. As you may know it is driver for dual-role HS USB controller, so I am familiar with USB HCD and gadget stacks. I have looked into ReactOS's git repo and saw that there is completely missing XHCI driver. In case of OHCI, UHCI and EHCI I saw Michael Martin's and Johannes Anderwald's drivers. As I understand one of them or someone from this community will be the mentor for the XHCI project in terms of GSoC 2016. For me is very interesting to work on NT platform, because till now I had only Linux Kernel development practice. I have few questions as probable applicant, 1. Should the deliverable XHCI driver support all kind of transfers? 2. How it will be tested and should it pass any kind of certification with any XHCI host controller? 3. Should it have support for non transfer related features? I mean for example LPM or Hibernation. 4. Will whole project entrusted to the one student or he'll be team member? >From your reply I want to understand what are you expecting form applicant and how can I fit to your expectations. Thanks in advance, Vardan.

Student Application

by Dasha Che

Hello, my name is Dasha. I would like to apply to be a participant in your group for the Google Summer of Code. Below I have written out some of the information that you were asking for and I would be very grateful if you took the time to read over and consider it. General Info Name: Daria (Dasha) Chekhovskaya Languages: Fully fluent in both Russian and English Time Zone: Central Time Zone ReactOS website account name: N/A IRC nickname on Freenode: Dashka Time Commitment I have two main things that I have set in stone for this coming summer. I have to take a drivers ed course, because learning how drive is a useful skill as we all know, but the course is only two weeks long either in the mornings or in the afternoons, so it shouldn’t really get in the way much. The second is boxing. I take boxing and kickboxing lessons and also help out with some of the kids classes. It’s generally Monday to Friday for a couple hours in the evening. Most of the time that I would be working on the project on would probably be in the morning, evening, and into the late evenings. Proposed Projects -Folder Treeview in Explorer https://www.reactos.org/wiki/Google_Summer_of_Code_2016_Ideas#Folder_TreeVi… -Audio Mixer https://www.reactos.org/wiki/Google_Summer_of_Code_2016_Ideas#Audio_Mixer -NTFS Driver Improvement https://www.reactos.org/wiki/Google_Summer_of_Code_2016_Ideas#NTFS_driver_i… One of the problems is that I don’t have a portfolio. I do have some precious experience in working in C++ and a couple other programming languages. I am by no means a professional but I’m always ready to listen and learn. I pick things up very quickly, so as long as I’m given pretty straight forward directions as to what needs to be done I, personally, have no doubts I’ll be able to figure out what to do. Best Regards, Dasha Chekhovskaya

SMB integration to reactOS

by Mohammad Samian Yusuf

Hi Pierre The Samba-TNG code has not been updated recently as per i know. Can you elaborate on how we can implement this, from the userland space atm ? i am looking into the source codes, so a bit of more explanation on how we might achieve this could be helpful. Sorry i am have not done kernel programming, i did a few course, on kernel dev, but nothing big,. One thing i noticed that reactOS does not support POSIX, so can use the CIFS.KO from samba, to develop some baseline which can be used to develop a client tool i really could use some advice on how we can go on implementing this, With Care Samian

Revived the Scrum Board!

by Colin Finck

Hi all, I have started using the Scrum Board of our JIRA again. Last time it was used was in 2012, and now that I'm using it everyday at work, I wonder how we could ever live without it.. Scrum Board for this month: https://jira.reactos.org/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=3 (pretty lonely so far) So what is Scrum again? In a few words: I pick some JIRA issues I want to tackle this month. I can order them and drag & drop between "To Do", "In Progress" and "Done". When everybody does that, we have a nice list of tasks being worked on per month. Finally, you don't have to hope for your bug report to get attention anymore. You instantly see when it is planned to be worked on :) I refrain from going into the details of Scrum, Sprints and Kanban now. This already didn't work for us last time ;) I hope some of you join my efforts. If not, well, I will continue to use it as it doesn't just help the public, but also myself to organize better. Cheers, Colin

Greetings and short CV

by Алексей Эльнатанов

Hi! I'm student of MSU Faculty of Computational Mathematics and Cybernetics. I've read about GSoC competition and want to tell something about myself. I know C with some most usefull UNIX syscalls, signals, channels, IPC system, basics about UNIX kernel, file systems, RAM management and external drives management in UNIX. Also studied NASM and now learning C++. I want to improve my knowledge about NT systems. Also I like to write some usefull stuff. In ReactOS ideas I prefer "Applications Manager Rapps", because it's interesting, it can help many people and because for other things I haven't enough skills. The most complicated project I've written was parallel realization (using UNIX processes and IPC) of Conway's Game of Life in C. Also, I like writing Python scripts.
