PD-Windows paid development
Posted: Sun Jan 26, 2020 6:42 am
Hello.
I have a public domain (explicit notice) partial Windows clone called PD-Windows which can be seen here:
http://pdos.sourceforge.net/
It is already capable of running text-based Windows executables.
I am interested in pushing this project forward, and am looking to pay a hobbyist/student around US$50/month to work on the project for a few hours per week that doesn't interfere with their studies.
My main interest at the moment is to get PD-Windows to be self-hosted, which at the moment requires "ar" from binutils to be debugged, as it is not working when linked with my own C library, PDPCLIB, probably due to a bug in PDPCLIB that needs to be tracked down. After that, other software needs to work, like the rest of binutils, dmake, a format and fdisk need to be written.
Is anyone interested? Code changes must be public domain.
Thanks. Paul.
