i am use computer systems since anno 94' .. ant the start was with an friend
who has bring me into the computerscene with lan into the area Germany and
Baden-Wuertemberg where we have on this time change software with other peoples..
the geeks who have bring software and load up and down it into the computer "boxes"
so, this at first.. Linux is an Kernel from Linus Benedict Torvalds who has use some other
tools with Minix FS file system at start on it have he developed his kernel and later added
he tools for this linux-kernel.
(Linus - Benedict have developed Linux(kernel) in a Minix System)
( Honorary Doctor of the University of Stockholm 1999
one year later University of Helsinky -> Dr. L.B.Torvalds)
This about Linux, Linux is only the kernel.. and.. the Linux Distribution it is the kernel and tools
the aggressive advertising was very welcome on the times where linux and tools comes up
also in this direction, "Windows/Microsoft was an enemy" for supporting the distributing linux on this time .
On this times there was upcoming two/three Distributions .. debian, redhat, and there in germany Suse in a factory.
and in Frace was Gael Duval who has founding a rpm-installingsystem for the user and an RPM-Listingsystem for
installing, the Rpmdrake, for the former Mandrake.
(So it is the DrakInstaller, PackageListingSystem (drakrpm) and the Drakconfiguration Center (drakconf) the Mandrake
and the whole things be the Draktools what's makes Mandrake )

Hi,
i have so far over 60% from the History and Adventure in the Wiki,
if you want help, do it and complete it furter... , now can you say
thank you to Gaël Duval with you Alias unter the tanks write
http://wiki.openmand..._big_.2Ag.2A.29
At Solutions Linux 2004 (Paris), i had together in front of me Gaël Duval and
Joël Bernier (Linux-Kheops / Les logiciels du soleil / RedHat). Both have
confirmed me this:
« In 1998, Joël sent a Redhat 5.1 to Gaël and this is the start point of the
adventure. Without this shipment, Mandrake would not be born. »
Please insert it in the wiki and publish it. My mail was rejected and I have
no time to search the reason...

unfortunately have Raphaël Jadot delete the whole History from
the OpenMandriva Wiki (this bast....) who was he the president of OM..
he would wipe out the history from Mandrake and Mandriva ..( how can you be so stupid )
how ever .. i have the mail saved in my mailprogramm .. .. but it's an other Adventure ..
how ever .. now it is anyone other an president for an Free community Linux OMLx
and no more commerce ..
i knows Linux and i have become with the whole developing, why and how ..
and i can only say, this whole Linux-derivatives have no standard,
any want make his soup .. and therewith it is the most from distribution to distribution incompatible.
But an NT from one Developer have an/this Standart where it need to work really well,
which rebuild Reactos as WinNT OpenSource System under the previously wiedespread GPL.
it has need torwalds linux to have an GPL around in the world to have now the possible under an
correct and free license the possible for building up an GPL WinNT today..
also to have one Standart in One WinNT around the world where was developed
from peoples in the net and on the net.
What it is better .. ?? Linux or WindowsNT
Linux was developed for have an possible to have an cheap unix like derivat for the Servers and as Network ordering System ..
Windows was developed to have an System on Personal PC's and later was Windows more developed for an Network System..
that understand so that windows is more programmed for the user and Linux later more for Servers,
because the whole Providers, internet connection, Web-service like http/ftp and so on ..
in this direction it is my Opinion.. :
Linux for Servers (Because the Stability)
WindowsNT for Workstation/ PersonalComputer-System
(User-Connection to the Datas and tinkering around and have an stable Standard for working together)
it means in no way to be linux a "serversystem only" Distribution and Windows it's an tinkering system ..
but i meant therewith linux it is as so an really stable system, but windows have an Standard where makes able to work together ..
dos... windows ... WinNT have a mass of programs and use many many in the history programming and well handy programs .
Easy really well for Using and work as an User .. and the same program can give further as zip or as
portable program in WinNT because, the same Binary-compatibility to make it easy possible to have portable programs ..
or in the able to become from the neighbour or neighbor short an CD fro installing Libre Office in WinNT
This have make it possibility to let us developing like we are still now in the situation now..
this is also the reason, why we should all supporting Reactos now, because we need also an System to work together
and reactos make this possible for further times .. under the GPL (what only allowed linux to us)
Maybe was it an big fail to use the "enemy picture" of Microsoft and Windows for more supporting linux-derivate s
and bring up Linux, but the most important it is now also to supporting Reactos and programming with in Reactos
to have an GPL and really free and open Sourced Windows.
And also .. if .. open Microsoft his sources of Microsoft, it is Microsoft still in the States with his Law's and liabilities.
So it is MS not trust able ! Because it is easy an Factory with Commerce background and.. dos was "stolen" from an disabled,
no shares in profits and no royalties... "Mouse" Windows was also from Bill Gates and Steves Jobs "stolen" from
an Programmer Woman (Adele Goldberg) in the Factory XeroX Palo Alto Research Center on this time 73' in California who has developed
the Windows-technics (Founder of Windows imho) (no shares in profits and no royalties) .. and so on..
Goldberg began working at PARC in 1973 as a laboratory and research assistant, and eventually became manager of the System Concepts Laboratory where she, Alan Kay, and others developed Smalltalk-80, which both developed the object-oriented approach of Simula 67 and introduced a programming environment of overlapping windows on graphic display screens. Not only was Smalltalk's innovative format simpler to use, it was also customizable and objects could be transferred among applications with minimal effort.[1][2] Goldberg and Kay also were involved in the development of design templates, forerunners of the design patterns commonly used in software design.
Bill Gates.. we are have, the geeks have distribution dos, Windows and he was goes to the whole States and has us
branded like thieves but we have support him.. this bastard ..
At end was we are the "Pirates" 0x ... and branded like a Longhorn.. Windows "was Bill's Baby" also because the history,
should we support Reactos, also for the Programmer Woman in the past in Xerox for her homage/tribute .
1973 is developed at Xerox PARC in California the Xerox Alto. The first commercial application was 1981, the Xerox Star.
on this video at timeline 51:13 / the timeline with Steve Jobs and the Picture ..
let show how become Steve Jobs and Bill Gates the "mouse" Windows ..
this is also the reason, why the most peoples Microsoft and Apple
demonizing .. The new Windows / Systems was need, but we are cant does something against ,
because we has need it ..
then was comes Linus with his system and any has do anything, because they are all know,
this is an change on the timeline of the Computersystems..
indeed, Linux has bring with the GPL in the backpack
and this makes now possible to have Reactos .. an real independent open Source and GPL'ed
WinNT, where make it us now possible for have an really free "mouse" Windows how it should be ..
this is the background behind.. and yes, Windows have an Standard who makes us possible
for let run any program in any WinNT up to this time.. in Linux works this not really .. and have not really an Standard ..
this is the reason, why i say, an Linux Distriebution on Server and an Windows on an Desktop as Workstation
or Computersystem on the livingroom .
So, now should we ask, what is Linux not ?
in my humble opinion : uniform it is linux not .
WinNT it is uniform because one System and 1000nd's/Mill. copy's of it ..
this make's the Standart for all and the possibility to work together ..
(if we see the kernel not, the many different versions.. who be actual or not)
(and also if we see the library's not, the many different versions.. who be actual or not)
it is the Windows on this place the more Uniform as Linux can be.
this is the Reason, why we should support Reactos.
best regards
Blacky
