Re: HTML5 Simulation Update

2014-12-29 Thread Keith I Myers 
Hello Narcis,
It has been years since I have last heard a mention of eyeOS. I was a huge
fan of the platform (and even developed a few eyePackages) until they
turned their back on the community that built them up.

I have no intentions of creating an eyeOS successor, this platform was
designed for simulations and training. As it will be released under the
GPL, there is no reason why another person cannot create a full featured
Web Operating System from my work. They would simply need to:

   - Create a server side filesystem
   - Create an Authentication System
   - Create an ACL like system
   - Create an API to tie everything together between the JavaScript
   "Client Side" to the Server Side components.

Hi Nathan,

I tried to test this, but was unable to find the option to change the
default search provider in epiphany :\. Could you provide with the exact
steps to reproduce this. I will try on both 14.04 and 14.10 for you.

Thanks
