Re: my thoughts

Haos, grow up. I see you have been answering many threads. Was it just to threaten people? If you must get me banned Haos, if that is really your goal in life, go ahead and get it done. This will only prove that the moderators of the ReactOS project are not handling public relations well and possibl...

Re: my thoughts

If legal and ethical issues are not acceptable discussion areas on these boards, what does that say? Ethical and legal issues can't be wished away. Promoting promiscuity and handing out birth control to people is gravely wrong. Having the money to do this doesn't make it right. Money supposedly give...

Re: my thoughts

Well Steve, if you can say that ReactOS is going to be stable in less than 10 years and that indeed happens, great. I think you will find though that it could be 10 years before a stable release is available. I guess we will all know in 3-5 years if it will take longer longer or not for ReactOS to b...

Re: my thoughts

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_license_agreement Interestingly from the Wikipedia article, the legality of EULA's depends on which court you talk to and which country you are in. http://boingboing.net/2009/12/04/are-terms-of-service.html Well that was a somewhat interesting, but perhaps not a...

Re: my thoughts

Can anyone explain why I am permanently not allowed to post my own threads? This is an extreme response that should be reserved for people trying to engage in serious criminal activities, not merely people who complain. EULA's are NOT legal agreements as most people don't even read them and many of ...

my thoughts

When a moderator says something intentionally inflammatory and nobody corrects him/her, what does that say about that moderator let alone the community as a whole? What is the so called "religious need" comment getting at? I don't need to believe in ReactOS. Even so, I want ReactOS to beco...

my thoughts

ReactOS is a mess where the moderators are obviously afraid of anyone who will say so evidenced by the fact that I can't post my own threads even after nearly a month of being away. Perhaps a better approach to creating an open version of Windows than ReactOS is to release patches for individual com...

Re: When does 0.3.12 will come out?

I can get my posting rights back easily Haos, at least for a short while. All I have to do to get them back is sign up as another user. How long that will last I cannot say and no, I have never done that. I don't appreciate your personal attacks nor do I appreciate your threats Haos. Your response H...

Re: When does 0.3.12 will come out?

Well Angelus, I strongly disagree with your suggestion that I a don't respect the developers and b that I should avoid Unix like systems. First off, my primary system is a CentOS system. I also dabble in: freedos, dosbox, Syllable via VM, Visopsys via VM occasionally, and I think you should get the ...

Re: When does 0.3.12 will come out?

So, where is the project and what is the status of releasing 0.3.12? The newsletters sadly seem to raise more questions than they answer. The current one talks about gcc assembly intrinsics and then says that this great feature isn't being used. Worse, the discussion of traps etcetera seems to sugge...

Re: 0.3.12 ... versions ...

Why should I contact another moderator to deal with someone on here who clearly has a complex? Is that going to thrill someone else? I'm not convinced that half the moderators on here have any patience let alone tolerance in the first place. I've been accused of swearing, I never have. I've been acc...

Re: 0.3.12 ... versions ...

What spam and where was it split off to anyways? I talked about elephants needing 22 months to give birth to a calf as an analogy for why it might take a while for ReactOS to become stable. I talked about my observation and agreeing with another person posting in the thread that many of the ReactOS ...

Re: When does 0.3.12 will come out?

An example in talking about team programming in software engineering is how many months it takes an elephant to bear a calf. It takes about 22 months I believe. With 22 elephants it isn't possible to produce a calf in one month. ReactOS right now seems to break down into only so many pieces and if o...

Personal concerns

MOD EDIT: Split off and packed in another Off Topic Thread where it belongs to. Open source projects to be successful need self motivated people with variable skill sets. Unfortunately, people skills seem to be lacking in the ReactOS developer community. I make this claim because I got denied new to...
