Re: Workplace Shell replacement without the secret undocumented 16-bit stuff

On that subject, here's another "Whither". Is anyone working on a
replacement for Workplace Shell that doesn't have all of the daft
Session Manager stuff in it? That would be good to have.

I take it from your useless post that you don't actually know the answer
to my question. I find it humourously ironic that you speak of wasting
bandwidth in a post that does nothing but. I continue to await a reply
from someone who actually does know the answer.

People complaining about Usenet bandwidth like they're still using a
1200 baud modem.
I upgraded to 33.6 a long time ago. It's better than 640k of memory!

This is the only project I know about for replacing WPS (though choice
of platform was not chosen the last I knew of but as far as I know
there were builds being done for OS/2 by the developers). As far as I
know the project stalled out several years ago when the focus of the
project changed and took on infinite scope.

There is svn access but it is not open to the public so I can't see if
there has been any work done but there was a basically functional SOM
replacement from my understanding.
http://nom.netlabs.org/en/site/index.xml is merely a place holder on
the site.
You'd have to ask Adrian about getting access if you are interested.
His contact info can be found at

The quickest way I know to ensure nothing gets accomplished.

That's one of the problems that one encounters. (-: Thank you. I'll
have a look.

That's NOM. I've read about that. By all reports it isn't binary
compatible. That's not very useful for what I want.
