Hello everyone. This is the first post in the blog. Smile. Well today the development for WallyOS Codename Genises BETA 1 has started. The BETA will be out soon but you will need a specific amout of posts to download it unless you contact me first at wallyosdev@hotmail.com
If you would like more info plese feel free to email me at wallyosdev@hotmail.com
Do i detect a hint of sarcasim, There's no need to be rude, I was just simply asked if i could mention it somewhere so i did, Its not my project i don't have anything to do with it, and my first impression was that this os was allmost done because why else would there be a forum for a system that dosen't exist yet?Yeah, a new OS, wich started development on 1st/2nd of April and wich will be beta soon... Wink
Just forget i mentioned it then. Somebody can delete this thread.

I didn't want to be rude, it's just sarcasm.There's no need to be rude,
Yes there's a forum and you might have noticed that you are the only one in that forumI was just simply asked if i could mention it somewhere so i did, Its not my project i don't have anything to do with it, and my first impression was that this os was allmost done because why else would there be a forum for a system that dosen't exist yet?
And you might have read that the development began few days ago and it's already BETA
And there's no information at all on the page.
It's nothing more than a (failed) 1st April joke.

been there, fell for it
On http://www.netlabs.org , they have a REXX operating system that was released on 04-01. I thought it was real but told it was an April fools day joke.

TinyKrnl
Talking about new OS's, I just discovered TinyKrnl. Their website explains that their purpose is similiar to ReactOS, yet subtly different, and various of their contributors work here as well.
do these projects work hand in hand, or are they competing projects that share contributors?

It looks like it's a side project of the ReactOS devs, not a concurrent project, wich wouldn't make sense
It's even hosted on the same svn server.
If I understood it correctly, the focus is on the kernel only and it is not planned as a real Windows replacement as ReactOS, but more for developing/learning/debugging things. I am sure, TinyKRNL and ROS share the kernel code as much as possible.
That may be a reason why some of the developers haven't commited much to ROS recently, but are more working on the kernel. Hopefully we will see some kernel enhancements in the future, imported from that project. I couldn't download/checkout the code yet.
But maybe it's only to get around that nasty kernel audit somehow
What confuses me is ...
You would think then that TinyKrnl would be a subset of ReactOS, as in theory, both are open sourced kernels compatible with XP. It seems to me that ReactOS would be add-ons to TinyKrnl work. no?

Re: What confuses me is ...
I never head of this project before, but it looks pretty amazing. with the win 2k3 sp1 stuff... Useful for Ros, this might be. Yoda rocks. lolvperez69 wrote:You would think then that TinyKrnl would be a subset of ReactOS, as in theory, both are open sourced kernels compatible with XP.

TinyKrnl is a project of a ReactOS dev who want to code that for learning purpose and for a documentation book.[TinyKrnl] began after the audit things started. So I think, it might be an attempt to speperate kernel development from the general OS development to reduce probable future legal issues.
Afaik, he (and some other) doesn't use ReactOS code.
Some of the documentation may become useful for ReactOS in future.
No code sharing.
Don't spread bullshit around.The same way as WINE is not affected by the ROS audit/legal issues.
Which legal issues?
WineHQ has their own Code Audit now:
