Alpha or pre-alpha?

Post by Tom »

I don't know if this is ok for this forum, but if you df or Tim Robinson, and this is off-topic you can delete this, sorry.

But I have a question.
If my OS (FritzOS) has a IDT, GDT, 2nd stage loader, C Kernel, bootsector, and a pretty-good textmode libary, could I take FritzOS from Pre-Alpha to Alpha on SourceForge?

I'm looking for what you (anyone) thinks.

Thank you,
dronkit

Completely out of topic. And this decision is really up to you and the quality goals you try to match. Generally speaking, you increase your version number
as you test new code (stability more than anything else).

Well I don't release code with bugs under all conditions.

I test untill everthing is working 100%.

Everybody SAYS that ;)
"Every program has at least one bug and can be shortened by at least one instruction -- from which, by induction, one can deduce that every program can be reduced to one instruction which doesn't work as
expected."

Tom: entirely up to you. This question should probably be directed to one of the Sourceforge message boards.
