Dear ReactOS developers,
I am nosing inside Wine and ReactOS code to understand something of
their inner workings. I wanted to compare the code of d2d1.dll, but
apparently ReactOS does not have it. Is this intentional, is it just
still to be implemented, or is there any other explanation?
Thanks and all the best, Giovanni.

Time will be 19:00 UTC as always.
The agenda so far includes:
- Status Updates
==> Please prepare a short text what you did since January,
so we can finish this quickly!
- GSoC

- Hackfest 2018?
Please let me know if you want anything else to be added to the agenda.
Just as the last few times, the meeting will take place on a custom IRC

to a group of ReactOS members. If you think you belong to this group,
but didn't get a mail last time, please also let me know in advance.
See you on Thursday!

Hello there,
Here I have attached my proposal for the GSoC 2018 project regarding the search shell extension for ReactOS.

gradually adding new features I hereby swear that I have not used nor seen

Hi there,
I am interested in a couple of projects under System enhancement, that I found on your projects list:
1) NT6 Recycle Bin Project
2) Search Shell extension
3) WebKit based MSHTML implementation
Kindly help me choose one, if I could get some more information regarding the projects, it would be really helpful and I can go ahead with the proposal.
Also, I have performed a complete build of ReactOS Live CD, and Boot CD and gave it a test run. I found it lacking a decent browser, tried to run iexplore.exe but it still couldn’t load any web pages. I might be able to create something to help improve on this. Looking forward to contribute to this reactOS.
Thanks,
Abhishek
Hello, I am a 3rd year student of Nosov MSTU, studying in the direction of Information and Computer science. I would like to develop components to support Wi-Fi, this is the third item from the list left on the site (https://habrahabr.ru/company/reactos/blog/351382/) Language know on average, can use greater part of his features. Experience in development is available since I combine study and work, I work in Department on creation of MES decisions. Fast learner, willing to allocate to the project 1-2 hours a day, maybe more( according to circumstances)
Здравствуйте, я студент 3 курса МГТУ им Носова, учусь на направлении Информатика и Вычислительная техника. Хотел бы заниматься разработкой компонентов для поддержки Wi-Fi, это третий пункт из списка оставленном на сайте (https://habrahabr.ru/company/reactos/blog/351382/) Язык знаю на среднем уровне, могу использовать большую часть его особенностей. Опыт в разработке имеется, т.к. совмещаю учебу и работу, работаю в отделе по созданию MES решений. Быстро учусь, готов выделять проекту 1-2 часа в день, возможно больше( по обстоятельствам)
Hi all!
I am a student and I want to try to participate in gsoc this year. I follow
ReactOS news for 4 years, I think (and even reported a few bugs).
I am a web developer but some time ago I started to study ASM and C (but no
C++ yet) in my university and found it very interesting for me.
I want to learn more about OSDev and maybe join your team finally :)
There are some thoughts about what I want to do for ROS during this summer.
1. Make ReactOS boot from btrfs. As far as I understand, freeldr does not
support btrfs and this code must be written. And boot sector ofc
I prefer this task the most (as for now). But maybe you will dispel my
dreams by saying that it requires too much effort for summer internship :)
2. I've already talked with Thomas Faber on IRC and he said that there are
some drivers that are in need of being (re)written. NICs and bluetooth
drivers may be interesting to me but I'm not sure if I can get through it.
So I'm asking your advice. Are this things doable for a student? Maybe
there are some other interesting low-level things for a GSoC'er?
Do you have mentors for them?
Basically, I want something low-level which doesn't require deep knowledge
of NT internals.
Thanks!
Victor Perevertkin
