In the very earl days (soon after Altair in Popular science ?1974) I did a lot of programming right up to 1988.
Popular Electronics, Janurary 1975.
As a Systems Analyst and Project Leader I have had to do very little programming myself.
In my real work, I do not or rather did not get involved in detailed syntax of any module. Programming bugs were identified and solved at Programmer and Programmer analyst level.
Laugh if you want to.... that's is your decision. I have had deep insight in OS development to a moderate extent and Language development at a very deep level.
Having worked with many Systems Analysts, I don't understand why you would havehad such knowledge of OS and language development - that's the specialty of the programmer. In any case, I'll note that your professional knowledge on this matter is out of date (1988!).
Again, I can't the inconsistency between your claims to such knowledge (even back then) and what you have claimed in this thread about the relation between Euphoria and the Linux kernel (which individuals such as rkdavis, jaygade, and mattlewis have throughly refuted).
Why not spell out what in your "very fundamental understanding" leads you to think that this relationship exists? Or perhaps you already did, and found your arguments thoroughly refuted.
Ah, to go from Project Leader to a reporter...
I started this thread in the hope that I might be able to help in an indirect way since I am not a very good programmer or even a tester. However, it will not be so.
Well, you raised an idea, and then I stated that this was already the case, that it already worked ( http://openeuphoria.org/forum/m/120997.wc ) So far, so good...
Then you derailed your own thread by:
Bringing up irrelevant points about Linux 3.7 and stating that they were relevant, backed only by your "very fundamental understanding of Linux and trends in Linux".
Falsely claiming that I had contradicted myself.
Asking that the community take on a non-existent problem! ( http://openeuphoria.org/forum/m/121183.wc )
This greatly outweighed any help you could have provided by starting this thread.
My point in responding to this is to make it clear that this community does not have a problem with accepting help, or acknowledging new members. Any issues EUWX has had in attempting to work with us are self-inflicted. Hopefully, newbies can learn from this thread what NOT to do.
NARS2000(no file system)
It has this now - http://wiki.nars2000.org/index.php/System_Function_Native_Files - looks like it was only added within the last year or so.
QB64 - Good but no Linux
Visual basic - no Linux compatibility. Mono not a satisfactory alternative for Linux
Gambas? xbasic?
I do not have a newsletter.
Get a blog?
I have never got attached to any FOSS work, mainly because I did not have the time. I know it is time consuming work.
I do some programming now, mainly to keep pace with my very clever grandson, basically to relate with him at his level.
More excellent reasons to start a blog.
