' The group that released the CE.NET port on Xbox has been working on their own website the last few days. The mainpage has now been updated with the project goals, future and more '
Welcome:
This is the web home of the xbox-windows project, an effort to bring Microsoft Windows operating systems the the Microsoft Xbox hardware platform. We are a non-profit, hobbyist effort, done in the interest and spirit of self-education. Xbox-windos.org exists as a place for users, developers, and other interested parties to come together, find information, share ideas and accomplishments, and build a small community around a common goal. We hope that you find, here, everything that you are looking for, and maybe a little that you wern't.
Project Goals:
The primary short-term goals of this project are, currently:
- Organize a team of interested volunteer developers
- Finishing a full Xbox BSP for CE.NET 4.20
- Writing and implementing drivers for CE.NET 4.20 to support the existing Xbox hardware
- Creating CE "Platforms" for general use, and specific purposes such as media players, I-appliances, and embedded servers
Long term goals may include:
- Creating a new, generic bootloader, capable of loading multiple operating systems
- Investigating approaches towards an XPe solution
- Investigating solutions towards creating a generic "Legacy-PC" environment on the xbox, in order to load arbitrary operating systems
Ideology:
Throughout the course of the project, xbox-windows will stay devoted to:
- Open Source; All of our works will be LGPL and readily available. (NOTE: GPL is NOT an option in most cases, as we are STATICALLY linking against closed, copyrighted code from Microsoft)
- Legality; All of our works must remain legal, and not infringe upon anyone's copyrights or binding licensing.
- Community; Anyone may contribute to the project in any area they choose, and anyone may use the project for whatever purpose they see fit, within the limitations set forth by "Open Source" and "Legality"
Current Status:
Currently, we have a partial BSP for CE.NET 4.20, and working PCI, USB, Display, and Mouse drivers. Most of the "important" parts of the BSP are done, however some features are still lacking or bug ridden. We also have a simple, preliminary bootloader based on xbeboot from the xbox-linux project. With these in place, CE loads and runs properly, but is not yet very usefull.
How can I help?:
At the moment, there is much to be done. Unfortunatly, there isn't much formal organization, yet, as to what needs done, what order it needs done in, and who's doing it. We're working on getting that together, now. For the time being, the best way to find ways in which you, with your own individual talents, can contribute is to join our IRC channel, #xbox-windows on server irc.oftc.net and speak to an op.
