Wineconf 2009
by Steven Edwards 24 Sep '09

24 Sep '09

Hi, I just wanted to let everyone know that Wineconf 2009 is going to be held in Holland on Nov 6-8th. I am of course planning on attending and Fireball said that he might as well. If any ReactOS developers are interested in going and don't have the resources, speak up and perhaps some of the users and advocates that follow ReactOS development would be willing to contribute $5 or $10 to the Foundation on your behalf. Information (what little there is currently) is here: http://wiki.winehq.org/WineConf2009 The ReactOS foundation Donation page is here http://www.reactos.org/en/foundation_donate.html Also while there has been some heated exchanges with Wine and ReactOS developers in the past, we do get quite a lot in terms of code from them so if your interested in helping them out, you can donate to the Wine Development Fund, which will help pay for Wine developers to attend. The donation link is on the main page of Winehq.org Thanks -- Steven Edwards "There is one thing stronger than all the armies in the world, and that is an idea whose time has come." - Victor Hugo

I'm back
by Aleksey Bragin 23 Sep '09

23 Sep '09

Hello, I'm back from my vacation which took part in Sweden this time (not counting a day passing through Finland). I had a pleasure of meeting Stefan Ginsberg ("Stefan100"), Magnus Olsen ("GreatLord"), Simon and his wife, and of course Jan Kinander ("JaixBly") who drove some hundreds kilometers from his city to meet all of us. I met all those persons for the first time in RL except for Stefan, who I met earlier this year in Brussels. After a perfectly guided (mostly by Magnus ;)) tour through the Old City (Gamla Stan) in Stockholm, we made the first ReactOS discussion attempt in a very nice cafe at the island where Vasa museum is. We talked mostly about the history of ReactOS project, how I ended up in this project, what were the most problematic moments of its life and development ("Hartmut incident", etc), persons involved in ReactOS at various points in time. After Jan's parking ticked started expiring Simon suggested to move into his office to continue the talk. We logged in to #reactos from the office, under GreatLord's nickname (it was a very unusual feeling when you type things, hit enter, and it appears as "<GreatLord> ..."), and we all together discussed future ways of ReactOS progress, possible commercial usage, possible support, stability and compatibility as usual, products which could utilize ReactOS and many many more things. In the end, we shoot a video introducing all this "conference" participants, and it actually shows "Magnus in action" for the first time ever. The video seems rather black, and probably has poor quality (I haven't transferred it to my PC yet) but it should definately be interesting. I will edit it and put on youtube asap. It was really great to meet all of you! Now, to the actual development part of the email (why it ended up in ros-dev and not ros-general). After I left, I saw number of commits significantly decreased, and only some 94 commits were done in my absence (roughly 6 per day). Quality matters though, not quantity! It's time to think about stabilizing what has been done and preparing a new release (without arwinss, if someone wonders). 1. Could someone of the testing team please provide me (here) a list of regressions (with corresponding bug numbers) introduced with recent ARMMM and other changes? 2. What is everyone up to right now, what unfinished work you have, what work you are about to finish, what you want and what you don't want to go to the next release? No need to write time consuming paragraphs of course, just provide a very quick overview / status so I and everyone else has idea what you are doing now and what to expect. 3. What's the most up to date GCC 4.4 status, estimates, problems (bug # would be enough). Thanks, Aleksey Bragin.

Regression of freeldr.sys on XBox 1
by Daniel Reimer 23 Sep '09

23 Sep '09

Hi, I want to inform about a regression on the XBox which causes freeldr not being able to load freeldr.ini and such failing to boot ROS. I tried to track down the regression and was able to find two possible guilty revs: 42263 OK 42526 No build available. 42527 XX Between 42263 and 42526 is not chnage in freeldr at all, so it has to be 42526 or 42527, both by hpoussin and both have something to do with loading files. I hope someone can fix it, if you need someone to test it, just send me a patch and i will try it. Thx Daniel Reimer

Are these CFLAGS / CXXFLAGS variables really needed? GCC must know where are its include directories.

possible reactos stand at Hackmeeting, Madrid, October 9th-12nd
by Javier Agustìn Fernàndez Arroyo 16 Sep '09

16 Sep '09

Hi all, i would want to ask for some help from all of you, Vicmarcal (and KJK::Hyperion) told se some time ago about next hackmeeeting event here in Madrid, and asked me to apply about ReactOS being there. I did it, and ReactOS has been accepted. The thing, now is that i dont feel too confident to be able to get this stand into a succesful status..... You will think reasons are childness, and probably they are, but as a result i feel tied up for doing it... What kind of help am i asking you for? well.. is anyone getting here so i could ask him/her for help? what should be the next step i should do? thank you so much

Network Breakage
by James Tabor 07 Sep '09

07 Sep '09

Hi, Sometime back a month ago we lost networking initialization. At this time, after each boot I have to reapply network settings manually. To go back from July and regression test each build is a heavy task to ask for anyone. I do hope someone has a revision to start from..... Thanks, James
