Warpstock is an annual conference for the OS/2 and eComStation operating systems and related technology. It is dedicated to information, education, support, and exchange and addresses users, developers, and software vendors. To achieve these goals, the event offers seminars and workshops, exhibition areas, and room for personal exchange.

 Now the presentation DVD of Warpstock Europe 2009 is available for download. It contains the presentation files which also can be downloaded from the Warpstock Europe 2009 web site at:

http://wse2009.warpevents.eu/en/agenda/presentations.html

In addition, it includes videos from the sessions recorded by Ed Durrant and a number of pictures taken by Ed Durrant, Ernst Martin Kirschner, and Michael Oehlhof during the event.

 Many thanks to Ed Durrant who had managed to make a mixed-mode DVD that plays in a HiFi DVD player and also operates as a data disk in a PC.

 You can now purchase this DVD from Mensys for only 5 euro (excl VAT and S&H):

(May 14 to 16, 2010, Trier, Germany)

 You are right, the cost of the trip to Trier may be very high for you. 100 EURO.. 300.. 500.. 1000 EURO.. or more.

 What is the reason to spend the money?

 A. Are you going make a presentation?

The conference is a good chance to

* demonstrate your applications to the users

* present success story of eComStation usage;

* share your libraries with other developers;

* learn new eComStation technologies and share the knowledge with other developers;

* present own concept of OS development;

* inform developers which software and drivers should be created;

B. Moreover, the visit of the conference gives you:

 Networking

* You are meeting with other users and developers from different countries, different cultures;

* If you are a developer, then you are meeting with your clients. Ask them what do they need;

* Meet the users from your city and region. The conference may help you create Local User Group;

* Get fresh news and secret information while chatting.

Income/experience

* The visit of Germany is good for your experience, you can see how german people are working, why they are so productive.

* You are collecting information what is the trend of OS/2 development. This helps you safe the efforts and don\’t spend then time to fake goals after return to home.

* If you are a designer then watch the design of german houses, clothes, banners

* Improve your english(/deutch/dutch), no need to buy tutorials of english language

* You are mobilizing while preparing for the conference. You are generating more ideas, more code while preparing for D-Day.

* Present your program to sell it

Vacations

* If you don\’t have a report then use the trip as short summer vacations

How to reanimate old project?

* step 1: switch to LANGE library http://ecomstation.ru/lange => this will

make you read the source code of your program, simplify and refine it, remember its structure.

Multilanguage support will attract more users.

* step 2: use modern MsgBox and Progress bar:

http://ecomstation.ru/projects/developer/

* The development of AHCI driver was started.

What can you do today? Share the information which notebooks (SATA-controllers)

can\’t be switched to compatible mode.

* Panorama VESA - Lars ans Steven fixed the trap in GRADD + the research of MTRR continues

- the users of i3/i5/i7 CPUs got significant increase of video output

(http://bugs.ecomstation.nl/view.php?id=2582,

http://bugs.ecomstation.nl/view.php, http://bugs.ecomstation.nl/view.php

The users of Panorama VESA can share information:

which monitors+adapters work well in large video modes (1920x1080, etc)

* JFS.IFS - some bugs are fixed, there is work on reliability of the FS.

What other developers can do? It\’s necessary create more disk tools.

* CUPS - Paul updated CUPS subsystem, drivers for Hewlett-Packard -- http://svn.netlabs.org/ecups

What simple user can do?

Test the driver, send report to http://ecomstation.ru/hardware.php

source: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.org.netlabs.genmac.user

What you can do? You know how to run a network adapter in UNSUPPORTED mode,

post the report to the site: http://ecomstation.ru/genmac

http://ecomstation.ru/projects/uniaud/

http://ecomstation.ru/commentnews.php

Homepage for students and engineers -- http://ecomstation.ru/projects/student/

New ideas/offerings for the students:

* Chemistry: we need more tools to draw molucules, 2D graphics.

* 2D/3D graphics -- the users need simple program to create 2D and 3D graphics (Use MesaGL and OpenGL 1.x libraries)

* Hardware, programming microchips: bootloader for the Microchip PIC microcontrollers (Supports families of PIC devices: 16F, 18F, dsPIC30)

* Let\’s publish information about applications/tools for medicine.

* Updated software: PMViewMol3D -- http://ecomstation.ru/apecs.php

Start new project today and win the prize at e-ball Awards 2010 -- http://ecomstation.ru/awards>
