Cash for Trademark - reallocate Donation to huricane efforts?

Hello,
We still have the cash in the foundation account for the trademark paperwork. ($525) plus about a
hundred in paypal donations not sent to the bank yet. Our lawyer and I have not compleated the
paperwork (his slackness and mine) and I have not cut him a check. 

Some of us would like to put the trademark filing on hold and donate the funds to the RedCross. I
would like to have a vote on it among anyone that is a user, tester, developer, or random fan that
has donated to the project in the past. If there is a unanimous vote then I will transfer the
funds that are in our bank account and whatever is in paypal to the RedCross. If there is a single
objection then I will not.

I know this project did not get behind the tsunami relief effort (Which we should have) so even if
there is a not a unanimous vote for reallocating the foundation funds then I ask that each of you
personally donate if you can to the RedCross.

The United States Government has really fucked it up and the truth is not being reported on.

Thanks
Steven

SYSTEMS 2005 in Munchen, 24-28 October'05

    Hello,
we got a good chance to represent ReactOS at Systems expo/conference in Munchen, which takes place 24-28 October.
 
Do we have anyone who could come? I'm not sure if I can come (I will try to), but it's gonna be a little hard and not so fun for me to run the stand alone.
 
 
SYSTEMS is a great place to represent ReactOS for business market and to get some companies interested in it.
http://www.systems.de (there is english version also)
 
 
 
WBR,
Aleksey.

Cash for Trademark and general fund.

Hello,
OK Thanks for your votes. I am not responding to any individual messages as I understand reasons
for decisions one way or another. Thats why I said we could only do it if a vote was unanimous. 

I have a todo list of Foundation and ReactOS things that I am working your money will go to those
purposes. A few of us bounced around the idea on IRC and I agree the legal ground is questionable
which is why I said they only way I thought we could do it was with a unanimous vote. (In fact
even if the vote had been unanimous I would have emailed everyone that has sent money again just
to be sure).

- Trademark Filing
- Build Boxen for CIS
- Any Legal matters that come up

Are the things I am working on. In that order.

We now return to normally scheduled hacking. 

Thanks
Steven

Re: Cash for Trademark - reallocate Donation to huricane efforts?

Hmm, I din't donate yet, so I mustn't decide.
But from a neutral point of view, I'd say that this money was donated 
with an intend, with a devotement to ROS. So redirecting it is not right 
im my opinion.

The mightiest army on earth will manage that ;

Re: SYSTEMS 2005 in Munchen, 24-28 October'05

At this point in time, I live in Munich, again.
So I'd be happy to either manage this or just attend at our booth (?) or 
whatever.

So maybe post me a PM concerning this matter.
DE is my tongue

Re: Cash for Trademark - reallocate Donation to hurricane efforts?

I have to agree.

I donated FOR ReactOS, and want my money to go there.

I can donate seperately for the Hurricane.

If the ReactOS Developers want to have a charity drive to donate 
funds for the Hurricane Relief, that's fine.

But, redirecting monies donated for ReactOS just seems wrong to me.

I agree too. I just figured I would ask as it was a subject we discussed on the IRC chat. No
donations are being redirected.

Thanks

Big FATX driver.

Hi. It is a noob question, so please be patient.

Ive read you've made a fatx driver and you are using it for the 
development on the xbox.

Now, i'd like to know if this fatx driver can be used to access an 
unlocked fatx HD connected to a i386 machine that is booting the reactOS 
live CD.

Am i dreaming? Or can this be done?

I just want to know if i could recover my multimedia files from the F 
partition using my PC some day.
