Even though Ed has a really cool project I am guessing since he does not have a business model it must be hard for him to work on it :(

Unless he figures out how to convince people who are :

1| C# Developers

2| Interested in OS development

To give him money for his work its going to be a tough sell - sadly.

discuss

You've very much hit the nail on the head. However, though it's hard, it's not impossible - we've got some magic (read as: not suitable for a public forum) in the business pipeline that should keep this project alive. If all goes well, we'll have a lot to shout about in a couple of months time. Until then, we're still welcoming sponsorship or donations! If nothing else, the project remains open source for anyone to contribute to. Cheers, Ed

I've been thinking about teaching myself low level development and FlingOS is just what I've been looking for. If these resources work out well, I'd be willing to pay you for them :)

I really hope you are successful ! I have been stalking your work for a while :D

Have you tried talking to local schools ? They seem really good target audience - with a lot of money actually.

I am also interested OS dev but I had nightmarish experience with C# while working at BRL.

I too am from UoB ( Eng Maths ) - graduated recently.

Its funny how much CS people are always browsing HN lol
