Post them on bugzilla, assign them to me and Cc

Thanks you. I'll post all together after tests completion, including
verification of that I didn't break rosbe/gnuc build in any way.
sginsberg(a)reactos.org and tkreuzer(a)reactos.org are
your men. I'd still
recommend using IRC though, as most of the developers hang out there
Well, perhaps I'll try IRC sometime, but based in previous experiences, I
don't think it's an efficient communication channel for things like this.
I hope we could manage well enough with these e-mail lists or direct
e-mail with these that you kindly provided.
Alex Ionescu will wear your spleen like a hat for
this. Discuss it with
him first if you want the remotest possibility of your scheduler being
accepted in the tree
Hehehe, I won't "discuss" much with him. I'll send to this list an
explanation
of what I intend to do, why, and how. The possibility of overcoming
the real-time scheduling limitations of windows (mostly due to DPC handling,
whose mere existence is one of the effects of an incapable scheduler), is
in my eyes one of the most appealing aspects of reactos. I have been
developing mostly for automation systems and pro audio, and I know well
the problem and how to solve it. If a windows compatible os fixes such
limitations, which is what I intend to do, I can assure you those industries
will be very interested.
In any case, if it is not accepted initially, perhaps at a later time, after
you can see a working implementation, much simpler than current one,
yet much more powerful and efficient. But if it's still not accepted,
I'm still willing to do it privately and I hope in such a case you won't
have
any problem with me using reactos sources for that.
Best regards and thanks you very much for answering my questions.
