Development reset is one of crucial events in history of OpenXP development, which made development clearer and dropped it back to level 0.

Reasons

OpenXP was a beginner project, and therefore it recruited developers with almost no experience and of any age. One of these developers thought that by hosting source code in their private Git won't get him kicked out of project development, but he removed the VPS where everything about OpenXP was hosted, including source code. Source code was mirrored and backed up by the lead developer on his resources, and the mirror was recovered and development continued.

However development reset was already planned to happen, due to the messy and incomplete behavior of new programs, useless laboratory system and lots of inactive developers. It happened in November, 2024, and since then OpenXP's official website, wiki and download center have been released, with many more things coming soon.
