Description:
------------
This project is to build an OS using Gnome. It will be built from the
desktop downwards. I want to see if I can simply modify the software to be
an Operating system, or if I need to create or add other software to fill the
requirements of an OS.
All software being used will be free software. There is none at this moment
as I am only looking for a place to tell people about it. There isn't even a
seperate site to this one (if I get accepted) so I can't add a url.
The project will be built on components, that is the desktop, the core OS,
the core services, application services, graphics and multimedia, application
enviroments.
The Desktop will be a single component (w/out apps) within which all
dependancies will be filled or will be linked to in another component.
The apps themselves will have their dependancies filled within their
components. and if they rely upon anything that the desktop provides then
they will be linked to the desktop component.
The core OS component includes the kernel (linux), the filesystem (will be
hfs++ and (gnomefs - to be written) linked together) and the hardware drivers
(apples). All components will be linked to this.
The Core services will be things like Hal, networking, system configuration,
bash etc. Each component being a seperate service
The core services includes a number of components such as hal, etc
Application services will be provided by the required parts of x11. Metacity
and Nautilus providing most of the required application enviroments and
services.
Again the required parts of x11 are used to provide graphics and multimedia,
Gstreamer with apples open source quicktime streamer added to it to provide
quicktime functionality, for gnomemeeting, totem, etc, Cairo, to provide a
quartz like rendering for Gnosis.
As of this moment there is no website except for this one.
Other Software Required:
------------------------
There are no dependancies for Gnosis because it will be a self-contained
OS.
Other Comments:
---------------
Gnosis is a project that I have been in the process of designing for the
last 2 years. I haven't started coding because I have been trying to tweak
the architechture and design of Gnosis to fit in with the available
technologies.
