At the moment the ports system is quite Linux oriented but at the moment there is a complete rewrite of the portage-system in progress. They call it [http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/portage/portage-ng/systemspec.xml portage-ng]. One of the targets is cross-platform support for stuff like BSD or MacOS so I really vote for OS/2 support as well :). It's too early at the moment to really have a look at it but we should definitely do that as soon as possible.

Note: This page is extremely unorganized like most of my todo-lists I do at home. Feel free to add your ideas here. We hopefuly organize that a bit better one day...


  • eComStation is very nice in my opinion (ktk speaking here :-) but updating it is still a major pain in the ass. We need a easy and stupid proof way updating it. And *please* in a non-GUI version too!


UnixOS2

There is a ports-like system for UnixOS2 in the works at the moment but I'm not really happy with that one and I doubt that we will be enough people for maintaining all that stuff ourself (dependencies and so on...).

When I use Linux I work often work on Gentoo which has really the best source-based ports system I've ever seen (and I know BSD too so it's not the only ports-system I know ;).

At the moment the ports system is quite Linux oriented but at the moment there is a complete rewrite of the portage-system in progress. They call it portage-ng. One of the targets is cross-platform support for stuff like BSD or MacOS so I really vote for OS/2 support as well :). It's too early at the moment to really have a look at it but we should definitely do that as soon as possible.

TODO:

  • set up a basic package with latest GCC and Innotek LIBC. This is really important...

WPS

  • replace background image dialog, it should be possible to point that to another directory than \os2\bitmap
  • replace the file dialog, Gnome 2.6 does that very nicely (screenshot will follow)
