Attention all ReactOS Developers, please! Your word is very valuable here! Please, compile a list of tasks you think ReactOS needs and send it here as a reply to this message
Here are some tasks which spring to mind for me. Most are very general though and aren’t down to a level you exemplified.
- Network -- Allow setting of address information via ncpa. (This is the only remaining task for the current 0.3.0 roadmap) -- Salvage the sockets library from Alex’s branch and merge to the development branch. -- Build on the existing NDIS model introducing support for IM drivers -- Add a default firewall including GUI for user interaction of the fundamental aspects. -- Add support for packet routing with Network Address Translation. -- Assist and merge with a Win32 port of SMB.
- Security -- Start to build on the current framework providing basic OS security -- Implement logon / logoff facility linking in with our gina library.
- Filesystem -- Replace the primary filesystem in place of a journaling system.
- NT Services -- Add support for starting and stopping services
- Multimedia -- Continue development on DX initially aiming for hardware accelerated playability of key games. -- Improve support for existing sound model.
- Explorer -- Add support for layered windows. -- Add libraries for support of common image formats, including jpeg, gif and png. -- Improve the graphical design of the UI. Enlist help of graphical designers / programmers. -- Add support for theming.
- Drivers -- Continue work on Plug and Play Manager -- Finish off USB support for keyboard and mouse. -- Provide support for drivers written with WDM -- USB support for peripherals such as pendrives and cameras
- Printing -- Introduce a printing framework.
- Power Management -- Add support for ACPI and APM. Battery monitoring, processor throttling, hibernation. -- Introduce shutdown and restart functionality.
- Build System -- Pick up CIS and incorporate into a build farm preferably situated within a university. -- Improve regression testing facilities using Wine where possible. -- Build ReactOS with MSVC and PSDK. _______________________________________________ Ros-dev mailing list Ros-dev@reactos.org http://www.reactos.org/mailman/listinfo/ros-dev
