What are we going to do with the existing rosdocs in CVS? I would like to store our XML/DocBook files in CVS now. Are we going to replace the rosdocs module or create a new one? - Jason __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? NEW from Yahoo!

Users who want to port existing documents should get the current rosdocs module and copy it to a safe place.

Technical Information... Shouldn't that be REFERENCE? That would be my guess...

Possibly, though I was thinking the OS theory (a.k.a. The guts) could be spread out as sort of a tutorial in the begining of the book and ReactOS, Win32, etc. API could be presented as a reference towards the back of the book. Of course the other two book method could also work. ----- Original Message ----- From: "KJK::Hyperion" <no...@li...> To: <ros...@re...> Sent: Friday, October 05, 2001 9:34 AM Subject: [ros-kernel] Re: rosdocs > At 17.30 04/10/2001 -0400, you wrote: > >Personally I think we should have either a two book or three book system. > [...] > >3) An in-depth kernel and API reference specifically geared towards > >developers and active ReactOS team members > > I'd split the last one into at least two books: > - Win32 API (and well-known extensions) > - The guts: OS structure, the Executive, device drivers, kernel services > interface, subsystems, and general kernel-mode programming > > since they are two very different and non-comparable fields, requiring > distinct abilities and knowledges > > ==================================================== > = To remove yourself from this mailing list, go to = > = http://www.reactos.com/home/mailing.html = > ==================================================== > > ==================================================== = To remove yourself from this mailing list, go to = = http://www.reactos.com/home/mailing.html = ==================================================== |

Be sure to delete any existing working directory you have of /rosdocs and checkout the new directory. lets discuss the layout before creating anything as moving stuff around in cvs is a bit of a pain.

Personally I think we should have either a two book or three book system. 1) For end-user documentation including command and usage 2) For developer documentation including API Reference and Kernel Internals or 1) Quick Command and Usage Reference 2) A More inept system reference (i.e. For systems administration) 3) An in-depth kernel and API reference specifically geared towards developers and active ReactOS team members As far as the laymen's tutorials that can be done to some degree later on when the system is more complete. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Casper Hornstrup" <ch...@us...> To: <ros...@re...> Sent: Thursday, October 04, 2001 5:10 PM Subject: [ros-kernel] Re: rosdocs > On Thursday 04 October 2001 22:34, Aliberti Emanuele wrote: > > Eric Kohl wrote: > > > I vote for replacing the existing module.

I agree, and favor the three book system.

Sounds good, but you might consider breaking down that third book into "Application Development" and "Kernel Development" sections, or into separate "books". --- Phillip Susi <ps...@cf...> wrote: > I agree, and favor the three book system. > > At 05:30 PM 10/4/2001 -0400, you wrote: > >Personally I think we should have either a two book or three book > system. > > > >1) For end-user documentation including command and usage > > > >2) For developer documentation including API Reference and Kernel > Internals > > > >or > > > >1) Quick Command and Usage Reference > > > >2) A More inept system reference (i.e. For systems administration) > > > >3) An in-depth kernel and API reference specifically geared towards > >developers and active ReactOS team members > > > >As far as the laymen's tutorials that can be done to some degree > later on > >when the system is more complete. > > ==================================================== > = To remove yourself from this mailing list, go to = > = http://www.reactos.com/home/mailing.html = > ==================================================== > ===== ======= Frank D.

I think breaking it down into sections might be a more attentive way to do it. Persons seeking to make ReactOS development easier can then do it via writing books or web sites dedicated to such oversimplification. Although, again I think we can all agree that type of involvement is a ways off. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Frank D.
