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

Lastly, can I coax anyone else into joining the ReactOS network movement ? hehe
Thanks for listening :)
Ged.
