with apps aimed to control USB toys.

eComStation development was stopped several monthes ago.
The market reduced, the sellings of shareware software dropped down to minimum.
We should start from zero point again.
1) The budget of OS/2 development is restricted, usually all development
goes on sponsor money.
Evidently, the development should be organized in Russia/ Ukraine,
because of low rate of rouble.
so it's more profitable to employ the developers living in this countries.
2) We still don't know what is the purpose of OS/2 in the future,
what applications to develop, what areas of usage to occupy.
3) eCo Software goes accumulate budget for OS/2 development again.

- eCo Software, eComStation.RU don't support
eComStation 1.2.5 (1.0, 1.1, 1.2, IBM OS/2 Warp).
We are forwarding users to FAQ database.
We recommend use eComStation 2.2. beta II + Fixpak 3,
because the latest version incudes all functions implemented during the last 10 years.
- Delivery of docs / packages to Crimea - 50% discount during 2014 and 2015.
- Ukranian OS/2 / eComStation users are served without restrictions,
we all have equal nationality "osevik" (= os/2 user)

Experience of eCo Software: it's difficult for users to search/change
device drivers.
One.. two.. three years till the moment when we get easy to use
Device Manager for OS/2.
How to create it?
- create monolithic application
- OR extend PCI Dock + extend USB Dock +
create additional utility which shows info about other devices and drivers
What functionality to implement in Device Manager?
- show info about devices and drivers
- do we need Update driver function?
Current budget of Device Manager for OS/2: $4

To correct plans and goals, let's discuss how do people use OS/2 today?
|
Usage today |
Add small feature / extend existing application |
I need new significant function |
Example 0: |
Internet surfing |
=> we need support of clouds
|
we need video editor |
User 1: |
General OS, all purposes |
I need password verification after system boot (simple system, not full-featured) |
How to send emails by list? (what application to use) |
You can post your wishes, we are going show this table to the
