[Politics]

"Protection from Virtual Machines"

The goal to create Virtual Machines always the same: Large OS goes absorb small/old OSes.

You remember what happened in 2008 (iMac/Intel, Parallels), when thousands of OS/2 users were wahsed aways from OS/2 city.

Conclusion: All official OS/2 web-sites, the developer of OS/2 *must* block the topic of Virtual Machines. Don't support the development, don't distribute the information. Yes, the topic of VM is interesting for some users but VM kill OS/2 quickly.

[DevCon]

"One man, no man"

Building an Operating System - it's a huge project. it's like building a real City (build houses, dig flowers garden, etc). Thousands of people are going this in the city.

Conclusion: Standalone developer is unable to create something. Always join a group, interact with other developers. Moreover, interace with all other "characters" (managers, resellers, Active users, ..)

[UserInterface]

Unique OS/2 User Interface

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

USB Flash in OS/2

OS/2 doesn't support Windows USB FAT32 flash disks. You should re-format USB flash disk in OS/2 to FAT32. After this you can use this USB flash in Windows AND OS/2.

[ArcaOS 5.1.1]

DOS works again

ArcaOS 5.1.1:

DOS virtual machine works again (it was working on Core 2 Duo, and didn't for i5). Install ArcaOS in UEFI mode to use DOS VM.

[Barriers]

Blonde Guy

libc occupies shared memory

Giant problem of OS/2 today: linux libc libraries eat low shared memory. Nobody cares, the libraries are not recompiled to use HighMem.

[People]

Wizard (Russia)

Wizard is designing for OS/2 since 2004.

[History: People]

Joachim Benjamins (Netherlands)

Joachim was working in Mensys BV since 90-th. and was managing eComStation development. Later, in ~ 2015 Mensys couldn't continue the development. Joachim doesn't participate in chats or projects currently.
