Usefull indeed, though we should be more strict on what goes into the trunk.
The more code goes there, the longer build takes, also there is a bigger
chance to break trunk with other changes. This is why we should isolate
trunk/apps/tests from other things, then tidy it up and reorganize it. All

If then ReactOS runs more stable - do it !

Too soon for more than one trunk. I only concur of what devs say, trunk has
to be revised and possibly - skimmed a bit.
Look, why is atapi still in trunk?? Stuff like this take up precious
buildtime and space.

I fully agree with Ged. I know it's fun to create something from
scratch (I used and will still do, of course) and work in an explored
area, however I think there should be some control. If you really
want to work on that and nothing else - we have rosapps/drivers. In
my opinion, trunk has
You mean we're supporting an interface no-one needs before the biggest gap
in ReactOS I/O support?

ReactOS has PCMCIA support before USB

Yes, I agree too - trunk should ideally not contain non-working code.
Maybe non-working drivers belong in a branch until they've been fully
tested?
Maybe trunk should be locked to everyone except a trunk manager who
accepts patches from people, or merges different branches in to trunk.
That way
To be fair:
1. The guy donated his code to ReactOS. Think of it like a gift to us
- it might not be what we really wanted, but it's still rude to insult
a gift.
2. This isn't support for PCMCIA, it's a stub - he said so himself.
ReactOS does not support PCMCIA yet.
3. Windows supported PCMCIA
Yes, but we get donations on all sorts of unnecessary things.
We really need donations in *useful areas* like, say, USB.

No it wouldn't slow down development, people would just develop on
branches at the same speed as they do now. It would just mean that
trunk would only get the features when they work, rather than having
incomplete and untested code littering it.
Don't knock it, it works for the Linux kernel devs
well, it will be useful whenever it has to :)
so, i dont see it as a bad commit after all, just funny :P

Exactly - so surely if we nominate a trunk manager they would
perform that role? That would work, wouldn't it? Their job would be to
accept fully tested patches into trunk, or reject immature or broken
patches. They would be like the Linus of ReactOS, the guy who says
whether stuff is good enough
Yes. We need a Linus Torvalds for ReactOS. If it worked for Linux, it'll
work for ReactOS.

So the whole project should continue to stagnate, but that's ok because you
can get debug info off your notebook...
I think it's much more important to get things moving forward in virtual
machines than your laptops debug output.

No. A trunk manager selecting what he likes won't work for reactos,
because we just don't have enough devs for any kind of cherry picking.
We need to take what we get. It would
Good luck in finding hobby programmers who do what you tell em to do.
As long as you cant pay them, its hard to force them in direction. If
they loose interest or fun in coding for ROS then we are not just
stagnating, we are deserted. If you wanna risk this, feel free to. I
cant and wont stop
hm?
