2Yuri Prokushev: It's a pity. I think, that donations could seriously encourage you guys
and give you a bit more free time. Just try it with Webmoney or PayPal. It's simple.

l4, linux, react os, mach, what ever! use them all at the same time! freeos had an
idea to use several kernels at once to balance the load so can osfree use several
different kernels at once and hot swap kernels? and please don't count out non
intel/amd hardware! os/2 was going to be on the alpha until ibm killed the project!

Sergey Posokhov 3.15.2004

The answer to your question is - micro-kernel

Remember that Linus is a form of UNIX, owned by UNIX corporation! If only OS/2
and Workplace OS (OS2PPC) becomes public domain! OS/2 has a sad history of being
a creation of the evil IBM! Also, OS2PPC would make a wonderful emulator! Create
your own kernel! I wonder if anyone heard of Amoeba OS?

So, guyz... just discovered this project. I'm the OS24FREE petition
(http://www.petitiononline.com/OS24FREE/) author and i think you need some help.
IBM could at least sponsorize this site, right ? I can ask them if you want. patchwork@libero.it

About kernels: i think that UNUNUNIUM guyz could help (http://unununium.org/)
Or, well... why not OpenBeOS ? I mean that you should 'keep in touch' with thoose
guyz for exchanging knowledge, in the vein of the open source philosophy. (probably
you need a *better* forum... and a better site ! CoreCodec teaches !
[http://corecodec.org/]) HaPpY CoDiNg !

Hi Marco, first of all thankyou for your help. We're already evaluating various kernel
options, but we mainly need more people and *developers* interested in the project.
Surely some kind of sponsorization could help, too. Our site needs a redesign to be
more attractive, but I think it is not a high priority... people should be attracted by
project aim, not by our home page. Thankyou for your interest! Nice to see other
italian OS/2 users. Bye Cris

According site. Any help welcomed. Personally I have no much time because I
finishing my Ph.D. work. According kernel. I propose stop talks about kernel
and use ReactOS as base kernel (at least for the first time) because not much
of work with comparation with another kernels. Oh, most of the OSes are
either the NT or UNIX

paradigm! 4.1.2004

Linux perpetuates the 50-year old UNIX domination, as well as Mach and Mac OS X.
ReactOS is Microsoft. If you want a truly free OS, use a public domian kernel! OSes
I want to be public domain are: OS/2 PPC, (Os/2 RS6000) Workplace OS, Workplace
on Demand, OS/2 embedded, DEC ALpha OS/2 and MIPS OS/2, Java OS, JOS, Chorus OS,
and Taligent OS. (Talos) IBM doesn't care about any of them, and as it is stopping
support for OS/2 in 2006, if you try to make an OS, you will get into trouble! I
asked the Bill Gates Foundation and Transmeta to make NT and GNU/Linux
public domain, but they didn't reply-probably if they did make it public domain,
they wouldn't be able to make a fast buck!
