Hi,
I am really interested in this project. I having 4+ years of experience in embedded system.
Many times i have cross compiled the OS kernel & other modules which were necessary.
So, what i got is you need a small operating system by which people can use and learn easily.
We can work on this project as profit sharing as well as a one time payment.
So this OS must have some basic features as you have mentions
Categories:
Office: documents writing & reading tools;
1. text editor, words processor, excels sheets, power point, pdf reader etc.
2. documents converter from words to pdf etc.
Multimedia:
1. Audio/video player, lets most commonly used like VLC or some other customize players
2. easy Image viewer and editor
3. tools which are used to burn the CD/DVD etc
5. games is an optional part if needed we will add
6. media editor
7. web camera support
Internet:
1. One web browser for internet; it may any standard browser but customized with minimum options to use for learning and not for configuration.
2. SIP calls as its a trend to use VAIP and skype type stuff
File Manager:
Printer Module:
Some remote access tools; It would be good to have so that a simple user can access hes/her PC remotely .
Basic utils:
1. Calculator etc.
So thats all i can think of right now. We can or delete any module/feature above as the your requirement.
Please provide more info if needed
Regards
Javed
