[Politics]

ArcaOS, eComStation, OS/2 - commercial

The development of OS/2 was performed by commercial companies. money is the fuel. the goal - to earn money.

eComStation: Significant part of money was coming from the sponsors.

On the other side: major part of new OS/2 applications are based on open-source modules.

[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]

(Application X)

[in development] Install this application to every OS/2 computer.

You can't stop time flow..

When UEFI and other barriers appeared, we said: it's not important what is changing in the computers. You can always install OS/2 to Used Core 2 Duo PC.

Time goes and we see that OS/2 must support new models of computers because old generations are not available. don't fit the requirements.

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.
