RE: [ros-dev] ReactOS 0.3 and magazine deals

Here is the original Linux Format article: http://homepage.ntlworld.com/gedmurphy/ReactOS.jpg <http://homepage.ntlworld.com/gedmurphy/ReactOS.jpg> I got it wrong, it was 0.2.4 they featured last time. -----Original Message----- From: Murphy, Ged (Bolton) [mailto:MurphyG@cmpbatteries.co.uk] Sent: 07 October 2005 15:31 To: 'ReactOS Development List' Subject: [ros-dev] ReactOS 0.3 and magazine deals Hi all, As a result of Linux World UK this week, I have 2 popular Linux magazines, Linux Format and Linux User, who are very interested in featuring us in the near future. Linux Format have featured us before, and would like to do a re-visited write-up detailing how far the project has progressed since the last feature, which was 0.2.5 Linux User seemed interested in doing something with one of our developers who is a competent writer, for a full feature. Both magazines would like to wait until the 0.3 release before doing their feature. I need to contact the editors with information and I'm guessing one of the first questions which will be asked is 'when will the 0.3 release be out?' GvG has said he wants to start up on networking, starting with getting Firefox running I will be doing as much as I can on the user mode side along with assisting Gé in any way I can. I know Alex has done a hell of a lot of work on the new WS2_32 and friends, and WaxDragon's relentless testing is highlighting progressions and regressions all the time. So I suppose I have 2 questions here: - Can we consider setting a date to aim for the 0.3 release, so I have something to give to the magazines? It doesn't have to be set in stone, just an incentive to work towards. - Is anyone willing to get involved in relaying / writing information to pass on to Linux User magazine? Also, I think the requirements for the 0.3 release need to be reviewed. It has some features listed that will hold back the release of 0.3 for no good reason <http://www.reactos.org/xhtml/en/about_roadmap.html> http://www.reactos.org/xhtml/en/about_roadmap.html <http://www.reactos.org/wiki/index.php/0.3.x/0.3.0> http://www.reactos.org/wiki/index.php/0.3.x/0.3.0 Lastly, can I coax anyone else into joining the ReactOS network movement ? hehe Thanks for listening :) Ged. ************************************************************************ The information contained in this message or any of its attachments is confidential and is intended for the exclusive use of the addressee.

Fwd: A new tool to interact with Bugzilla
by Martin Fuchs 07 Oct '05

07 Oct '05

Hi, I downloaded and tried the Deskzilla tool. Quite nifty. :-) But when trying to use it with the ReactOS Bugzilla at http://www.reactos.org/bugzilla/ I have problems to login. Is there some version incompatibility? Using it with Wine's and Castor's Bugzilla works quite well. Regards, Martin ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Jonathan Ernst <Jonathan(a)ernstfamily.ch> Date: 06.10.2005 13:01 Subject: A new tool to interact with Bugzilla To: wine-devel(a)winehq.org Cc: wine-users(a)winehq.org Hello, This might solve people's concerns about the difficulty to use/search in bugzilla. You can save queries, make fast search in comments thanks to the local database (use top right search field), etc. Of course I discovered this application right after having triaged some hundreds bugs... http://mozillazine.org/talkback.html?article=7491 Deskzilla 1.0, a desktop client for the Bugzilla bug tracking system. Deskzilla delivers features for greater productivity and an improved working environment for the users of Bugzilla.

LinuxWorld London, 2nd day
by Ge van Geldorp 07 Oct '05

07 Oct '05

The second day of the show was very much like the first day. Not a single BSOD, my laptop hung twice after visitors played around a little bit. Basically the biggest problem I had was how to prevent loosing my voice, I'm obviously not used to talking as much as we did the these two days. There were some (Linux) magazines showing interest, Ged Murphy has their details. All in all I think it was a worthwile show and I'm looking forward to going to one of these shows again.

This will be fixed upon implementation of setsockopt(). We also get jibberish when resolving name info. This will be fixed when WS2_32 has getnameinfo() It works as expected in Windows.

Developing on ReactOS
by Rick Langschultz 06 Oct '05

06 Oct '05

Hey everyone, I was wondering how well reactos compiles on reactos? And does the standard build tools work. I was also interested in doing some development work on ReactOS using some common GPL-based software.

There should be a bug in the envp creation. ProcessParameters->Environment is a PWCHAR and envp is a char*. -- :Emanuele Aliberti

My gcc 3.4.4 compiled the files perfectly, so did msvc 2k5 with maximum prefast warnings on. Initializing all those variables to NULL seems an awful waste to me.. Best regards, Alex Ionescu
