2david Write what you want. None limit you in your fantasies. But don't point to
other what and how to do.

BTW, Ivan Skytte Jrgensen released his OS/2 layer for Win32 (http://i1.dk/ntos2/)
source code under following license: http://i1.dk/ntos2/license.txt. Becasue Win32
subsystem API designed closely to native API of ReactOS we can easely modify and
extend this core functions. Good start. Isn't it?

my fantasies are much more real than your lies!

GO ahead, sell your soul to Linux! I won't cry when OSFREE dies because of
your arrogant error!

Sergey Posokhov 11.28.2004

Readin' sources of "NTOS2"... howling shame!

Yuri Prokushev 11.29.2004

2Sergey I'm not looked at sources yet. Too many stupid implementations or that?

Sergey Posokhov 11.29.2004

Total stupidity, just like: "on error return 355 else return 0"

Heh. So we have more work.

Well, Yuri etc, time to bring you all up-to-date. I've found where ReactOS keeps its s
ystem/file loader, and will start work on the OSFree LX extensions to that ASAP.
(Gargoyle grin of glee! As far as the "OSFree is dead" doomsayers, might I point out
to all and sundry that OSFree actually has some code shipping. I've just checked google
and OSFree appears to be the only Open Source OS/2 clone still standing - much as
ReactOS seems to be the only Open Source Windows clone left. You can't beat survival
in the long run. And making ReactOS the starting kernel gives OSFree that - ReactOS
gets some more users and another subsystem, OSFree gets a working kernel, and the
whole issue of what we do when/if we want our own kernel gets left somewhere else
while we get the whole thing up and running.

2Wasley Great new! Pls check which loader you'll fix. In ROS exists 2 PE loaders. One is
Native module loader (we needn't modify them) and corresponding subsystem loader (in
userspace, we need to add/modify loader to support LX.) Most probably, you need to create
easest subsystem server (check os2 module of ROS CVS) and add to it LX loader (I think it
must be implementation of DosLoadModule).
