Hi,

does anyone know what has happened to v2os. It's main site is not reachable anymore. Though development ceased years ago, there was at least a webpage about this good old project.

Regards,

Hi and welcome,

http://sourceforge.net/projects/v2os/ is apparently the v2os project page on sourceforge.

Hi and welcome,

Thanx , but i'm not really new to the forums, i just was deleted by some stupid idle script .

http://sourceforge.net/projects/v2os/ is apparently the v2os project page on sourceforge.

Not really. It had been the page since about 2002, after the vanish of v2os.cx, and only until 2005. It hosts only some info about v2os 0.70, which was the kiss of death for the project in that time. After that the project was restarted on v2os.v2.nl. But now this is gone without any info....

Something else on this topic: Anyone know what happened to SharpOS? I haven't been able to access its website for months and there hasn't been any activity on its SVN as far as I can tell.

Their SVN repository on SourceForge doesn't show any activity in the last 4 months. However, I'm not sure if they switched to another one. You could try and reach them on #sharpos on irc.freenode.org.

Unununium stoppe too since March 2007.
I did a mini VGA driver and a CPU detection routine for this project, but it was not included officially.
Some uuu coders came from v2os project.
The design of uuu had many zigzags, there was many rewrites:
1 in asm
2 in asm/C/Python
3 with oskit
4 as linux userspace application

There was also hesitation among languages to use: VM or Python or Ocaml or Erlang...

That's sad it was very interesting, but few developers contributed last couple of years.
Actually, only Phil Frost was active coder.
