Hi,
after having finished its 11405th build, the last official RBuild
builder has gone offline, forever.
The Linux CMake builder has now turned as being the official builder.
Thanks RBuild, you served us well :-).
Also, the other RBuild builder, the release builder has also gone
offline forever. Its hardware was not able to properly handle a ReactOS
build, and was hardly upgradable.
Daily release builds should replace it any time soon.
With my best regards,

ReactOS Foundation
The ReactOS Project is proud to announce the first of the development
contracts that will be funded by the recent donation campaign. Edijs
Kolesnikovics joined the ReactOS development team very recently and
has been working extensively with Amine Khaldi and Olaf Siejka to
create an application test suite based around the AutoHotkey (AHK)
automation system. AutoHotkey is a tool for scripting keyboard and
mouse actions in order to automate running of programs on Windows.
While the current test suites exercise a considerable amount of
functionality, the true test for ReactOS remains when it is used to
run applications. As such, Edijs has been working to create tests
using AHK to run a variety of applications, starting with those on the
Golden Apps list. The basic framework is already in place along with a
few tests, but much more can be done to expand the selection of
applications tested. As such, the Foundation has elected to grant
Edijs a development contract to develop additional tests. The project
congratulates Edijs on a job well done so far, and would also like to
thank Amine, Olaf, and the AHK developers for their help mentoring and
advising Edijs.
Contract Details
Time: 84 hours minimum
Wage: €168
Expected Duration: 1 month
Objective: Within the designated time period, develop as many AHK test
scripts for applications to be used with the automated regression
testing as possible. The intended goal is to have at least all
remaining Golden Apps testable. This project seeks to help developers
catch regressions more quickly so that stabilizing ReactOS for
releases becomes less time consuming. This task will be monitored by
Amine Khaldi.
Sidenote: Due to a variety of circumstances unrelated to the donation
campaign, Edijs' contract wage is significantly lower than what would
be the standard contract wage for the project.
While this works for us, we should consider trying to get this feature
back. When it's considered for removal, then they obviously "fixed"
something now that noone needs (and that makes absolutely no sense at
all), while the feature as it was before is very useful to compile 3rd
party code for Windows.
One possibility (since we compile gcc ourselves anyway), is finding out
where they "fixed" it and revert that revision for our builds. If they
completely remove it, we rename the option and send the old code in as a
new feature for MSVC compatibility ;-)

May I attend? I am not a developer, nor do I know the way these types of
meetings take place.
I would like to observe and possibly take notes for PR releases.
I apologize for my late request; I just signed up for this 'dev list'.
If nothing else, could someone send me the log from the meeting? Thank you
in advance. :)

Hi,
FireFox 3.0.19 can be found here:
ftp://archive.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/3.0.19-real-real/win32/en-US…
I definitely don't see why we should host it. This link won't change
(since it's Mozilla archive).
Why uploading Click-N-Type on our server while they provide a link that
won't change with version upgrade: http://cnt.lakefolks.com/CNTzip.exe
Once again, I definitely don't see why we should host it.
Same with FireFox 3.6.28:
ftp://archive.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/3.6.28/win32/en-US/Firefox%2…
So, there's no reason why we should host it.
TotalCommander can be found on an official mirror site here:
http://www.slo.ru/download/total_commander/tcm80x32.exe
Since it's a shareware software, I see no reason why we should host it.
Furthermore, it might cause issues with license.
Finally, as for the rest, Thunderbird 3.1.20 can be found here:
ftp://archive.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/releases/3.1.20/win32/en-US/Thund…
So, I definitely don't see why we should host it.
Please delete all the the files above from our server, and use the links
I provided.
Only host applications that we cannot find in a TRUSTED place, or
applications that we ship with our own modifications.
With my best regards,

Hi,
Around 56843 to 56917 I've been forced to do a mass clean to build the
bootcd!!!! This has put a halt for me to work on ReactOS while it
takes 33+ minutes to build. Example, makex XXXXX_clean does not work
at all even when removing bootcd.iso! Forcing to clean in the main
checkout directory! Posted this twice on IRC!
