[Politics]

Beta-testing, 0 distance

The experience of previous 25 years demonstrates that: every new feature for OS/2 requires several years of development, usually new modules are included to OS with delay: 3 years, 5 years or 10 years.

It's wrong!

New functions should be available today. At coming friday, not in 2030 year.

OS installer should offer list of beta-versions of new modules (new 30 - 50 experimental modules).

Write code only if you can't live without that

Better implement short compact projects for OS/2. Long term projects die usually. Many apps for OS/2 never were released.

[UserInterface]

Unique OS/2 User Interface

OS/2 is diffrent from other systems thanks to unique User Interface.

OS/2 can't access memory

Usually OS/2 can use 4 Gb (3.5 Gb) of RAM. BUT, For new computers (let's say, manufactured after 2017 and newer), OS/2 can access 2 Gb, 1.5 Gb or less.

If you search the word "monk" in the vocabulary - you will see Roderick's photo as example.

Roderick Klein was interacting with all developers while working on eComStation. He was working in 24/7 mode during several years.

If you are writing documentation for your application then we recommend: create html files and publish at the homepage of your product. So it is indexed, so you can show it to other people, discuss the document in real mode.

don't generate inf files.
