  Re: announcing TrackDraw (BrickFest preview)
 
(...) In support of the LAST point (below), which strikes me as the most important point (why do hobby stuff it it's not FUN???)...

(...) ... This is very interesting, but I want to set expectations clearly: - I will not spend any time porting TrackDraw to another platform. - I will release sources with the executable so that others may do so. - I will not integrate changes made (...)

(...) Depending on the application. A Firewall/NAT doesn't need much of anything, especially if it's doing the logging to a network syslog server. 8M should be plenty for that :) Of course, my 486 is running RH6.0, because the newer versions didn't (...)

(...) ... (...) ... I replied directly to Amaury about helping, which I appreciate. But I'm curious: does anyone know of a online discussion on the challenges of porting a substantial application from Windows .NET to Linux? To keep this mildly on (...)
