I chime in even less than Richard, but I have to say I
whole heartedly agree with his sentiment.
Perhaps we should take a lesson from the early history
of this project and get back to letting the code talk
for it's self.
Reactos started at with an "emphasis on results -- on
written code rather than endless talk". Famous words,
I'm sure we have all read 100 times, but now seems
like a really good time to remind everyone of them.
Kind regards,
Tim Jobling

Now, i've been reading the lists the past few
days...I may chime in from
time to time with my thoughts here and there, but
for the most part i've
tried to keep my mouth shut.
Lately however, there has been so much bickering
going on. Every thread
has been turning into a flame war. Several
developers have left, are
threatening to leave. I think everyone needs to
CHILL OUT for a moment.
There is so much argument over who should be doing
what, what their
rights should be, etc. There is no sense in this.
ReactOS is supposed
to be a fun project, yet suddenly we are caught up
in politics. We
really need to find a better way of doing this.
Flaming each other,
getting mad, threatening to, or in some cases
leaving the project is NOT
the right thing to do. What will end up happening
is that the project
will slowly fade away into obscurity, and I for one
do not want this to
happen.
While I don't have any recommendations as to how to
do this, i do think
that there is a solution, and i will be thinking
about this over the
next few hours/days.
Regards,
Richard
