By your I meant not Orr, but Haifux's society. >And all in all we are very tolerant towards other OSes,... So why not windows drivers lecture, that Orna wrote you have rejected in the past? Gabi

This is the people's club. However, this is haifux. The mailing list is handled by hamakor's website, the domain is paid by hamakor, and the website will eventually go there as well, so _this_ will remain haifux. If someone wishes to start another forum which has different interests - I will not be against it, just hope they'll be kind enough to pick a different day of the week. And all in all we are very tolerant towards other OSes, the AIX lecture will be scheduled (once the lecturer gives his consent on a date), we had an open solaris lecture, and even a freebsd one. Even windows' drivers and NDIS emulation might be an interesting topic (anyone willing to give such a lecture?). Orr. On 4/10/07, gabik <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: OK. I fully accept it. It is your club. I just proposed to change it from Haifux to HaifOS. Or leave it as Haifux but be more patient to other, different OSes as well. >you will never be able to connect from Linux Of course you will. When we find time to port it to Linux. You see - it is not against Linux. It is just being practical and trying to benefit the most people you can with your limited time resources.

Lectures on configuring WiFi cards in Windows is obviously out of the scope of the club (again, this is Haifux, if people want to have Haifwin, HaifOS, or any other club - they are welcome to start it). If there is some lesson about that for Linux, then it might fit, but otherwise - it's not in the scope. The same goes for other complicated P2P or ad hoc networks. If this enlighten us about how our Linux behaves (how ad-hoc networks are established), then it's interesting and in the scope. Otherwise (this is a propietery Windows protocol which you acnnot connect in Linux, and you will never be able to connect from Linux) this is outside the scope of the club. Orr.
