Could your scan tools be of benefit to those programmers that are presently modifying and fixing bugs in the of ArcaOS when completed? If so, this could greatly benefit the community until you have progressed further along on your kernel and operating system.

Probably. Everything I develop / release toward ES/1 and ES/2 will be open source and anyone can use them / adapt them as needed.
You can keep track of my work here on this Git server. I'll put all the generic tools in a UTILS\ folder there at that level.
Mathias:
Martin, obviously I meant ArcaOS with ¨where everybody else is¨. ; )
Rick, I am working for a company that builds software to optimise railway inspection and maintenance processes.
Well I wish you all the best for your project, Rick. I can see the benefits, and will be happy to try things out as soon as there is something to see.

I mean is it C/C++? Would you be able to do code reviews? Or contribute source code?
Mathias:
Sure. But I have not yet done OS/2 development. I`d love to be of more use to the OS/2 community, but for now I`m translating ArcaOS into DE part by part.
If the day would have 48 hours I might be able to do more most likely.. ; )

It will be a year from now until I'm ready to start, but if you have time to review things I would appreciate the help. You will also learn a lot about OS/2 from looking over "working" code that is part of the design, and not just use of that code in an existing blind kernel + DLLs where we don't have source code.
