I went through the forum and heard a lot of things about which browser (mostly mozilla) should be used as the default for ROS. Just my idea, but I think that we should use a modified version of the Mozilla ActiveX control instead with a dummy browser placed on top. There are 3 reasons why I think that this (even though it may be more difficult) is probably the best choice in the long run. -Programs that require IE will instead be redirected to use Mozilla's rendering engine instead -The dummy browser could store it's bookmarks in a similar manner to the way IE does adding to the startbutton/bookmarks compatibility -Still promotes OSS Firebird and Mozilla are great and all, but if there isn't compatability with the myriads of programs that want to call IE for some reason or another ROS will be slower to be adopted

ReactOS web presence

by Martin Fuchs

Hello, I got an offer of a PHP web programmer via private email to help developing the ReactOS web site: > I am actually more of a PHP web-programmer. If you need any web > programming for ROS, I can certainly help you in that area! I know, the current reactos home works quite well - just in case there are some ideas for improvement. Regards, Martin

Has anyone seen/looked at this? Its a GPLed dos VM for win32.

by Wierd Wierd

http://sourceforge.net/projects/dosbox/ I have seen that our dos VM is a bit on the weak side, and since this is GPL, might be worth looking at. It's allready written for win32. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! SiteBuilder - Free web site building tool. Try it! http://webhosting.yahoo.com/ps/sb/

But do you think its possible via a Windows filer driver? I guess I am thinking about replacing the Linux PnP implementation and passing it off to the Windows PnP Manager and then using Linux network cards and such as a quick and dirty wrapper to get Linux driver support for us on ReactOS.

Re: Interest in ReactOS

by Al Hartman

Uh, guys? Just as a potential user... If I want a Linux Filesystem (which is INCOMPREHENSIBLE to me), I'll use Linux. You are created an Open Sourced Windows Compatible OS. Stick with compatibility as the first thing. THEN, if you can do something faster and better without breaking compatibility.... Then do it! But, If I wanted Linux, I'm well served by hundreds of Distributions... There is currently, not ONE Windows Compatibile Open Sourced OS. And thanks for making one! Al

NTobject namespace (was: "Interest in ReactOS" / "Drive letters")

by Martin Fuchs

Hello, to make visible as a picture what has been discussed in the recent discussion about drive letters, in which way to mount them and eventual extension for new file system standards, I want to post a screenshot of the new ROS Explorer version. I implemented display of NT object namespace. So you can now see the internals of NTDLL, where and how drive letters are mounted and much more. Even the registry can been seen as an integrated part of NT object namespace. -- Martin Fuchs martin-fuchs(a)gmx.net

Re: [ros-general] dubious web site

by rené Tournois

At 22:02 29/01/2004 +0200, you wrote: >What the hell is this ? "Rene Tournois and RosAsm" ???? :)) It's me. :)) Well, if you'd like a 'diversion' time from your hard work, here is it: This attack is from one of the guys of the Win32 Assembly "community". I am the Author of RosAsm. RosAsm is an Assembly developement environement written _for_ ReactOS (GPLed, of course). In its actual state, it is an integrated package with Assembler, IDE, Sources Editor, Disassembler, Sources Level Debugger, Resources Editor, and so on... 5+ years of patient work... More than an "Assembler" it is, better said, a "PE Assembly Producer", directely outputing Assembly written Applications, that i started the day i first heard of the ReactOS Project... As long as i can not yet Auto-Compile RosAsm under ReactOS, i make use of Windows for the Developements, and of course, i have to face Pro-M$ / Anti GPL guys. As you may guess, the relationships are quite 'hatefull' and often times 'bloody'... ;) This 'world affair' origine is in a Thread called "The State of the Union", initiated by Beth, at alt.lang.asm News Group. I did not post much in this thread, other than for shouting at a guy asking Beth to shut up. After this Donkey sent me several hatefull Mails and the discussion went where it should go, in such cases (...). The sentences of mine he is publishing where extracted from my Mails. Though i am not shy, at all, of my political and ethical opinions, they were written in a _private_ area, and, if i had to express them publicly, i would do the same, but in a more 'civilized' manner. Bye, keep up with the good and hard work. (Hurry up with the Menus implementation, so that i can begin promoting RosAsm the positive way... :)) as long as i will not begin promoting my Tool before i could, at least, Auto-Compile it under ReactOS, and as long as i can not do this, actually, without being told "writing GPL _for_ Windows. Shame on me if ever!... ;) Betov. < http://betov.fre.fr/RosAsm.html >
