What do you think about....

What do you think about the idea to have a public forum/site where the users can clearly see the advance and developping of amiga os 4.x ?.. it would be nice ( IMHO ) to see how the developping goes on and what is going on... maybe if a bug has been fixed and other things...

It is just an idea..

@nubechecorre

Good idea but this one should be handled by the developers or the beta testers and I guess thta the most of them would have little time for something like this. Or maybe not?

@CountRaven

At least, a place for reporting problems encountered with the AOS and make the suggested tests for the aos developpers to verify the problem.

@nubechecorre
Good idea, it would be very interesting!!

@nubechecorre

Ideas like this always sound good but it's a bit like the o' tradesman arrives to do a job for you around the house and you're there keeping an eye on them to ensure they do what you want. Some people don't mind, alot of people do.

I wouldn't want someone breathing down my neck personally and if the site doesn't update for a defined amount of time? It'll just give fuel to some of those people out there that have little patience for inactivity.

If there is anything to be said that we need to really hear then the people involved have many avenues to inform us, via this site or others.

We don't have to be an active part of the creation; that's what feedback in the traditional way is for.

It's just one of those things I think, the world is obsessed with being an open book or everyone is everyones next door neigbour, I like space and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

But hey, I'm not trying to be over the top, heck, Rogue and Co may even like the idea. It's just not the way I'm betting

Nevermind it was just an idea...

in the end we are all pure opinion (based on fact or otherwise) , right or wrong is pretty much decided on chance of ratio within the collective group.

I have a bad habit of being quite the cynic and clinically practical to a fault, but I adore logic and there isn't really an alternative... heh, yikes, listen to me :-p

Can ya tell I've only had one hour sleep, it was so hot last night I ended up getting up at 4am!

There are several devs and betatesters who read and post here regularly. We may poo-poo some of the "bug" reports, but if there is a repeatable problem and, best of all, a way to reliably reproduce it, we can and do raise formal bug reports that won't be forgotten. You may even be lucky and get the guy reponsible for that component to see the topic and fix it himself.

It's enough to raise a topic here asking about your problem(s). If it isn't an OS problem, someone will help you, if it is, it'll get noticed, reported and fixed.

The worst thing to do is to make an off-topic post to an existing thread with "hey, I've got this problem...". That sort of post is very likely to be missed.
