I'm the Debian GNU/Linux Maintainer for legOS and am a current member of the sourceforge legOS project. I've been talking with Luis (albeit, given his response times it feels rather one sided [to be fair he said this would happen...] ;-) about coordinating this next release. I've been tracking the RFC for 0.2.6 and responses and i've accumulated 7 or so patch sets from the posts and from patches filed at sorceforge. I'm studying the patches now and am setting up to do the patch merge. There's a lot more to say about all of this (poss. name change, patch incorporation, doc upgrades, etc.) but let me stop, for now, at simply saying I'm volunteering to coordinate this next release. I'll get into more detail in a separate posting. I am currently waiting to be given admin privs. at the legos sourceforge project. I look forward to hearing of interest in the next release and of course welcome suggestions for content and offers to help !! You can reach me by posting here or via my contact info below. I hope this helps spur our renewed interest in legOS (or name TBD :) Regards, Stephen -- Stephen M Moraco stephen@debian.org http://www.debian.org/~stephen -- stephmo@users.sourceforge.net -------------------------------------------------------- FYI- did you know that on a Debian Linux box that 'apt-get install legos' is all you need to do to install legos, gcc and binutils? Then copy a Makefile write your C/C++ code type make and then download... (unfortunately, a well kept secret?) ---------------------------------------------------------

Mark, I am sadly guessing that Luis is mourning the loss of Duke to Indiana last night and thus has not responded. I hate to see a supportive and excited fan see their team loose. Ed (...) [snip] (...) [snip] (23 years ago, 22-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Well, I am definitely interested in participating! I am actively seeking developer status on sourceforge for the legOS project.

		Re: Proposals, Bug Fixes, etc and tracking them with SourceForge
I think the main problem with legOS right now is lack of consistent maintenance. As Luis Villa noted back in February, he can no longer devote enough time to legOS to support the upkeep. He also made a call for new volunteers, and listed what's (...) (23 years ago, 21-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
