Hi Jer, The ReactOS Project consulted a IP lawyer and came up with a draft policy statement. Maybe the two projects could work together on this. http://reactos.com:8080/archives/public/ros-general/2005-January/001402.html Thanks Steven __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

reactos.com this weekend
by Ge van Geldorp 26 Jan '05

26 Jan '05

Some urgent maintenance needs to be carried out on the electrical installation in the building that houses the reactos.com box. To perform this maintenance, power will be shutdown Friday night till Sunday morning. I will be moving reactos.com web- and mailservices to a fallback box. This should take place some time Friday. Switch back will be Sunday. The bandwidth capacity of the fallback box is much lower than that of the main box, so please don't plan on submitting stories to SlashDot this weekend... Gé van Geldorp.

There were 2 things, for me, that weren't made clear: - The issue of using the same names for the OS API Although this is the only way, are there no copyright infringements in doing this? - Using the same names for interface components (e.g. start, control panel, explorer) Again, do Microsoft not have some form of copyright on this? I picked up 2 small mistakes. 2b) While coding style may not 'be' covered by copyright, There is a '>' at the start of 'TRADE SECRET ISSUES'.

29 Dec '04

We're now in code freeze for 0.2.5. That means that only fixes for showstopper bugs will be allowed into the 0.2.5 branch and developers should discuss their fixes on the mailinglist before committing. 0.2.5 RC2 is available from our SourceForge download page. The official release for 0.2.5 will be tomorrow, just before the move to SubVersion starts. Gé van Geldorp.

Alternative CMS' ?
by Murphy, Ged (Bolton) 16 Dec '04

16 Dec '04

On the back of Jason saying he was looking for a replacement CMS I've asked about and trawled through the net with the following results. It may or may not be of use. WebGUI - http://www.plainblack.com/webgui Appears to be very popular and was recommended by quite a few people. Performance is very good as are the features it offers Quick overview available here http://www.cmsmatrix.org/matrix?wid=2&func=viewDetail&listingId=1001 Mambo - http://mamboserver.com/ Recommended by many people to me, and has glowing reports from all the sites I visited. Certainly my favourite. Quick overview available here http://www.cmsmatrix.org/matrix?wid=2&func=viewDetail&listingId=1074 Confluence - http://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence/ This was recommended to me by a friend. I am going only off his recommendation. I've looked at other websites that use it and it appears to be good, although I don't have any performance statistics. OpenCMS - http://www.opencms.org/opencms/en/ This was also recommended, but I wasn't overly impressed by it. OpenSourceCMS - http://www.opensourcecms.com/ Overviews and statistics of many CMS' can be found here - http://www.cmsmatrix.org/ Regards, Gedi. ************************************************************************ The information contained in this message or any of its attachments is confidential and is intended for the exclusive use of the addressee.

The SlashDot effectl
by Ge van Geldorp 16 Dec '04

16 Dec '04

With most of the slashdotters gone again I thought it would be nice to share some statistics. The last day the website had around 46.000 visitors and served 1.800.000 requests. Load average went up to about 55 maximum and was between 20 and 35 most of the day. The webserver was set to handle a maximum of 110 clients at a time and most of the time it was actually serving 110 clients. All in all, I'm not unhappy. The site did slow down considerably, but it didn't fall apart completely. If you were a bit patient you usually got in. Gé van Geldorp.
