Free win32 Software Distribution Project
hi everyone!
i recently had the idea of this:
we could take a little real good free software for windows, and modify them that they better work together and give them a standarized look and feel.
the whole thing is called "Free win32 Software Distribution Project" or just "FreeWSD"
than we only need a package manager that updates the system and get optimized builds.
it schuld be installable on Windows and later also on ROS
so ROS also would become more popular
i mean today i use a quarter of my time for seeking updates, and eyery time i reinstall Windows, i must install this, and this, and this. short: it sucks.
here is the actual homepage: http://reactos.com/wiki/index.php/Free_ ... on_Project
what do you think?

On the other hand, it's nice to see ppl making use of the hierarchical capabilites of MediaWiki!
BTW, when you mean "native" widgets, what do you mean? Shareaza I know uses skinning, so I'm a bit confused as to what exactly you mean.
Thanx

Coming on, coming up, let me help ROS and I'll be able to look @ a life well used.
what I want...something that can automatically go and download Nightly builds of things like Firefox, VLC, and install with absolutely no input from me.
...yes I prolli could do it in a batch file but im lazy...
I vote to get a Bit torrent client we can use as a service and use that to download software....just an idea

When we get to the point of having a OS updater, they may be a good idea, especially if they (he) can get around the firewall problem.Quigs wrote:I vote to get a Bit torrent client we can use as a service and use that to download software....just an idea

Anyway, i think we need the collaboration of REACTOS.NET.TC (Klemens Friedl).

Well, if people is listing..
Here are a site with many and only freeware programs. Maybe worth taking a look...

I guess many of these programs will work with ReactOS, as the OS evolvs.
