Quote from: Souper Mod;1333781This has much potential.  How much thought has gone into process scheduling and file systems?  It's not all about fancy icons and backgrounds.

The file system is going to be a variation of Fat32 and NTFS pending on the file install. I already wrote the detection system so it can import and function Nautilus correctly when installing with your OS.

Oh snap, I guess this project is quite well underway.  I might be able to lend a hand somewhere.  I have some experience with Fat32.  I'll look up some of the details.

There is a problem with what were trying to do basically..

The legal matter is this:

Ubuntu is covered by whats known as the Creators Commoner Copyright. (CCC).
This give them the ability to freely distro ubuntu without any addons. However.. adding addons to Ubuntu and distro's on the main core itself is illegal. Not by Ubuntu but by the CCC which covers the packages we tried to install and send out.

Basically, we were adding copywritten material that is paid products or ones that you need a liscense for by registering with another company. They did not like the fact that we were creating .pck or .bct files of there actual packed program and re-distroing them outside there main loop.

Basically it would be like getting someones flash, importing it into your FLA movie and using there movieclips and scripts without there permission.

After talking with a couple of the companies about what we were doing, only one of them said it was ok.

Thus the project is at a stand still while I try to reason with them.

What specific paid products are currently are housed by dicks who don't like the ClockCrew?

Its not so much paid, nor is it they don't like the clockcrew. They just lose " a potential customer ".

Lets say we package something with Ubuntu and you didn't like the fact that it crashes. Well, it could be our fault that program crashes.. however you will never trust or buy that product now because you saw it crash.. but it may be stable if bought from the company or installed by yourself instead of an all up package.

Think of it like a car. Would you purchase a car that has had the exhaust swapped with Walmart fart pipe, or would you rather purchase a skunk2 exhaust and install it yourself knowing you did it right.
