| An Opensource OS/2 Petition to IBM (from Konstantin Okounkov) |
| Marco Radossevich has started "OS/2 is Dead, Long Live to OS/2!" petition to IBM Corp.:Well, IBM joined Linux...
If they really want support the OpenSource community they should relase the code of OS/2, due to their development stop. I think OS/2 source should give us many interesting knowledge, as we can revive the development scene around this cool OS. Well, this isn't first petition to IBM about OS/2. In this case I remember our initiative (http://os2.ru/voice/petition/index.html). I think that opensourced OS/2 is unreally because it contains some 3rd party companies copyrights for example. Maybe IBM will take this voice of people into considerations?? -> URL: http://www4.PetitionOnline.com/OS24FREE/petition.html -> comments: 8 [ Version for printing ] [ Send via eMail ] |
