I understand the w32api package is a low on the radar but you and Erine
are the main points of contacts so I will direct the questions to you.
1. Is the w32api supposed to be a SDK/DDK package?
The answer seems like a yes.
2. Do we want to try and help create a standard for open source Windows
development?
The WINE people have taken great efforts to make building Winelib
application act the same as building a application using Mingw. For me
the answer is a big yes. How about the rest of the ReactOS and Mingw
people?
3. Can we create a enviroment that all the project involved can work
together on?
I think the answer is yes but is it worth the work to everyone? Do we
want to try and support a enviroment that is the same on all platforms
and where all of the applications should run the same? Here is my wish
list all partys involved.
- I want to be able to build ReactOS, WINE and Open Source Windows
Drivers/Apps with as little headache as possible. This means having a
common SDK/DDK.
- I want to be sure that my app is going to run the same if it is a
Mingw compiled application, a Winelib App or a program running under
ReactOS (Running Properly under Windows is understood).
- I want to try to create a system that makes it easy for anyone to
jump in and help any of our projects.
The relationship with the WINE/Mingw/ReactOS has been good in the past
and we want to keep it that way and make it better. I for one think
this is the best way to do this but I have been known to have been
wrong once or twice before =)
"Can't we all just get along......"
Thanks
Steven
