But how WELL does mozilla work with it? Well enough we could include it with 0.2.8?
No, it's still full of bugs. Mozilla won't be included anyway, it's a 3rd party app.
Ged.
Normally i'd take this hardline stance on 3rd party apps, but if we say, ship firefox with ReactOS 0.3, we'd raise a lot of eyebrows. Suddenly this puny operating system that crashes all the time and isn't compatible with much of anything is running several complex, everyday
apps.
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?
