[Atomos-discuss] Fwd: [TLUG]: [OT]: Seeking general Atomic OS usability comments

[Scott E. <ps...@gm...>]

Hi all,

For those who're still subscribed to this list, my apologies on the
long delay since last I posted.  I'm still battling an insidious
illness.

However, it's still a battle so here's my next volley.  =)

I posted this message to the Toronto Linux Users Group (previously
TLUG, now GTALUG) earlier today.

Would love to hear any comments.  Take care all!
- Scott

Atomic OS is first and foremost a web development library.

However since it is also the operating environment for it's
applications, I'd be curious to hear what people think of it in
general.

There is a complete re-write of Atomic OS / WAJAX at
http://projects.psema4.com/atomos/

This version is almost entirely object based, and, unlike previous
prototypes, is intended to become a solid foundation for future
versions.  It is expected to become version 1.0 upon release.

If anyone would like to take a look and make comments, it'd be most
appreciated.  Before visiting there are a couple points that should be
noted:

- Only firefox is supported.
- Either open a second Console after browsing to the page, or 'cat
/etc/motd' for a list of important notices about this version.
- Very few commands exist.  It basically provides a shell and browser.
 What I'm looking for is whether or not it is *close* to intuitive for
linux users.

There's still a long way to go on this project, but many of the
problems defined by previous protoypes cores have now been dealt with.

TIA.
- Scott.
