Hello Bernd,
be prepared to defend yourself against Tom's and Lucho's comments. I
believe it's called peer review.
in theory - yes.
in praxis - here are the reasons why
you won't see a peer review by me
I started a new branch of the kernel,
I'll not use any arkady kernel for production
it's simply that to much has changed; far beond the necesary amount.
example:
config.b :
removed all comments,
build.bat
changed MSCL8 to MSC
changed TC2 to TC
changed comments :- to ::
etc.
etc...
not only that it was MSCL8 for some reason (because it's the MSC V8
compiler), this also makes MANY changes without any useful purpose.
but when reviewing changes, I'd have to review ALL changes and see
if there any new bugs introduced, and thats simply impossible due to
the sheer amount.
there are people, that can add significant to a project, but change
only relevant parts, and leave the rest intact (cheers to michael);
other's are simple unable to do so even if told 100 times.
I'll run my own kernel, as I simply trust it more; I've put
enough time to make it as stable as it is now. Should it
break, it's my fault, noone else to blame; betting on a russian
horse is too risky for me.
