Hobbes (Files) Reoganization
Martin Iturbide:
Hello
Checking the Hobbes Reorganizaton there is a little mistake I made when Nathan was recreating the site.
At some point I wanted to slipt the Windows related OS/2 software in "win16" and "win32". The idea was to put Windows programs that run in 32Bits that are related to OS/2 and that runs in OS/2 with Odin in a different place of the Windows 16bits software that runs in Win-OS2 sessions. That's why you see on "/pub" that I have /windows and /win32, but I never finished it.
My questions is, If I should go forward with this idea. Move the Win32 items to "/win32" and rename "/windows" to "win16".
Regards

Sounds reasonable for me.
By the way, thank you very mich for all your work for OS/2.
Greetings,
Mike

Thanks Mike.
I posted the idea on the "Warp Mailinglist" and Nathan decided to take a vote on it.

It is not doing good. 7 for "I"'s (In Favor) and 13 for "Nay"'s (Not in favor)
People voting against it are not posting it directly, just a direct email to Nathan, so I don't know the reasons. I found it odd since it is a very insignificant change.

I find it odd that all that all the no votes were sent privately to him. Possible yes, reasonable maybe, believable....not to me. But that's just me.

Hi Martin,
I think you are not thinking clearly. Not everyone knows if a windows program is 16bit or 32bit so dividing up that way makes it harder for users to find something that might be useful.
Most people using computers today don't know the internal workings, to them it is just a tool to do a job or play a game.
