This is getting really funny. Since you act as if you work you ass off and we the devs are slacking, how much time do YOU spend each week with productive work?
ReactOS Development List <ros-dev@reactos.org> wrote on Sat, March 25th, 2017, 9:17 PM:My original claim was that discussion about opening #reactos-dev is useless
because:
1. Devs intentionally not pay attention to #reactos
2. They even intentionally not pay attention to forum and JIRA
So if we open #reactos-dev the dev will start ignore #reactos-dev too.
So the real problem is the devs intentional detachment and indifference and not the problem of #reactos-dev
You spend time in useless discussion instead of facing the real problem.
Also even you treat ReactOS as a hobby, you should not treat it as a toy. Too many people have already set their hopes for ReactOS. We should not dissappoint them by leaving the job half way again and again. ReactOS will not become more mature thing, while you still consider it just as a pet. It really may be mature, but with that attitude it is not possible. We should take some responsibility. The sooner you accept that, the better.
We have the paradoxical situation. ReactOS Foundation has money for contracts, but nobody accepts them. Unstead the majority of participants reported the excuses, that they have all the time spent on REAL work and personal life. And for ReactOS there is no time left. Do not you think that there is a self-deception here? Why not combine a hobby and earning money? Why not work for the ReactOS Foundation? ReactOS, with the right approach taken, may grow into serious buisnes.

You HAVE to understand that everyone is contributing what they think they can afford to contribute. No matter how much it may be "best" if they used their time on something else, they ARE contributors, not slaves, so they are free to work on what they want. The sooner you accept that, the better.

Right, show me the code. AKA we accept patches Alexander.
Regarding #reactos-dev, I'm afraid that if we open it to everyone we will see the endless noise from jira to flood #reactos-dev.

Speed of development of ReactOS is really slow. Developers do not care even about reports in JIRA. This discussion is sensles and useless because regardless of the it's result nothing will be better in ReactOS.

There should simply be more devs in #reactos. Some are, but many are not. Everyone of us is able to give voice to newbies and direct dev related conversations to the dev channel. When we open this chan to the public we could instead remove it and do everything via #reactos.

It would isolate the gsoc people, rather than help them integrate into the team. Remember Google isn't just giving projects some free labor, the goal is to introduce new devs into the communities with the idea of them remaining in those communities. So being in the main channels should be part of the goal of gsoc.

I think we should yust try to do a -m and see what happens.
