Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think there are restrictions on what you can put in a copyright notice. I don't know why doing something like:

Code: Select all

/*
 * Copyright (c) 2016 Foo Bar<[email protected]>
*/
would be bad.
If some of you people keep insisting on having backwards compatibitity with the stone age, we'll have stone tools forever.

s/normal/typical/

a Copyright Notice needs a name. A signature on a painting qualifies as a Notice. The Notice is not required to have Copyright protection, but it is a heads up to idiots who might think its public domain. There is no reason a Copyright Notice cannot include contact details, be written in Swahili, avoid certain letters of the alphabet, or even be written in verse and itself qualify as a created work.

Looks like a nice start.
You should add support for pipes; I tried doing:

Code: Select all

echo Hello! > /dev/com1
And I didn't see anything on the serial port. :mrgreen:
You know your OS is advanced when you stop using the Intel programming guide as a reference.

ok , I don't know all things, so I think all your are right.
but , In China ,Copyright to a pseudonyms and also to the real man .

anyhow , I have rewite the copyright with my real name, and put the code unde The BSD License . But I don't know is this right.

I also rewrite the README file . And I remove the stdio code port from MINIX , I real can not understand The license of MINIX, so
I just so this.

I remaned minix_fs.h to minix.h , but the struct and variable I have not change them , does this matter .

Yes, I compiled the code. You don't have an ISO image, so how else would I have tried it?

Hi,

- I'm sorry if I offend you, but with that english you aren't going to get pibuters any time soon. You should learn proper english.
- Your code is technically copyrighted to you, without any open-sourceness.
- Your code has to be copyrighed to someone that actually exists, like
Linux Torvalds
and not
linust
.

I am a chinese ,and I am very poor in English. I do not want to learn more English.

but , I really don't know does your mean . if it copyrighted to me , it can not open-source.
i work with many chinese in our team. normally they are good hard working people but the biggest issue i have them is the imperfect English and shoddy quality. I always have problem in this respect. They dont like to improve their skills and quality. I see exactly same problems with your post, broken English, full of grammatical and punctuation errors.

If you really think you want to think, work, perform and speak at a world-class then good English is a must besides software skills otherwise there will be always people disdain at you. Now in China it seems there are many tech opportunities these day so English skill may not matter (my understanding) but if you work in a English speaking country or with people, language improvement is incredibly important.
key takeaway after spending yrs on sw industry: big issue small because everyone jumps on it and fixes it. small issue is big since everyone ignores and it causes catastrophy later. #devilisinthedetails

I absolutely agree.
There is no reason why to not learn World International language.

Seem you do not understand what copyright means.
Copyright, consists of license, which is used to mark what can user/customer/etc. do and what it isn't allowed to do.
Plain copyright, will only allow user to use compiled code in personal use.
But copyright with specific license can be very different.
