Hi Colin, Thanks for your work. This commit is likely breaking UDFS recognition when media has a protective CDFS partition with UDFS afterwards, while both FSD are unloaded. You'll first match the CDFS recognizer and not the UDFS recognizer. I would suggest you modify FsRecRegisterFs() so that you can register low priority FS.

This is cool work but you do realize that adding non-Windows partition types and changing Windows headers (and Windows macros) to work with them, as well as forking our CDFS from the Windows CDFS... doesn't really help compatibility move forward... It would be nice to discuss about how these changes can be done to keep our 'special' USB livecd boot and CDFS changes, without twisting the system away from its NT roots. My suggestion would be a filter driver on top of CDFS, and a re-definition of this macro to be used by the filter (or whatever code relies on it). This sounds like it would give you the best of both worlds...

Licensing - Make ReactOS conform again!
by Colin Finck 20 Aug '17

20 Aug '17

Hi all! I've held a presentation at Hackfest today regarding Licensing Best Practices, different positions about the GPL and its influence, and ways to improve ReactOS' conformance with all involved licenses. I think we should treat this subject even more seriously than others, given that we are an Open-Source project trying to provide an alternative to a proprietary product. Also licensing questions arise from time to time, which is why we should collect some answers. Please watch the video at https://youtu.be/OTVVz9VLisU or see the slides at https://svn.reactos.org/press-media/trunk/Events/2017%20-%20Hackfest/Licens… Discussions are open now! :) But if there are no objections, let's introduce SPDX license headers, .ABOUT files, and a complete license list as soon as possible. Cheers, Colin

Modularizing the ReactOS repo in Git

Hi all! After David has successfully tested a first SVN -> Git conversion of our repo, here comes the next challenge: Finding a way to preserve our current modularization into reactos, rosapps, rostests and paving the way for even more modularization. My vision for the future is a small "core" repo that only contains our host tools and SDK. We could also split off subprojects like fast486/ntvdm or Paint into individual repos. Now that Microsoft has abandoned them under Windows, they may individually attract developers who would never hack on the entire ReactOS repo. Furthermore, 3rd party components could be imported through their repo instead of copy-pasting their code without history (as we do now). Even if that vision is a distant goal, the technology for it is already required for a reactos, rosapps, rostests modularization. Isn't that a perfect scenario for Git submodules? Not sure: I'm not aware that they support the concept of optional modules. You could only check out the "core" repo with all defined submodules. This would make it impossible to use "core" only to build Paint. There also seem to be other drawbacks when using submodules: https://codingkilledthecat.wordpress.com/2012/04/28/why-your-company-should… Alternatives like Git subtrees, Google Repo, and Gitslave exist, but there is even less information about them. Furthermore, I think a good integration into GUI tools like TortoiseGit is also a requirement for most of us. David and I have started to write down our findings: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Ey1xdS_0GcG7p7ZgHZBh4A3VMq2uxyw5MpnUXbT… Your input on this is very welcome! I guess any migration to Git is blocked before we have a solution here. Cheers, Colin

Enabling themes in 3rd stage
by Giannis Adamopoulos 31 Jul '17

31 Jul '17

Hello, After recent changes in explorer, comctl32 and uxtheme the state of themes in reactos was improved a lot. I would like to ask your opinions about enabling themes in 3rd stage. It is also possible to have an option in 2nd stage to select if we want 3rd stage to have themes enabled. Do you think this should be enabled by default or not? All ideas are welcome. My intention is to complete it ASAP so that it can make in the release. Thanks, Giannis Adamopoulos

I'd vote for a page in 2nd stage. If we would make it by default then only in the releases.

hi all, honestly, i dont think theming is a crucial choose when installing. i would not add that screen, at 2nd stage at least. Maybe at 3rd, right after 1st run....

Another Hackfest update
by Colin Finck 26 Jul '17

26 Jul '17

Hi all! With the Hackfest less than 3 weeks away, let me give you another status update: * It is important that you now add yourself to https://reactos.org/wiki/ReactOS_Hackfest_2017/Lists or fix up your information there. Further E-Mails will only go to the people listed there. * As many of us also attend FrOSCon on Saturday and Sunday (19-20), I'm also going to book the loft for this night. There may be options closer to FrOSCon, but I think not having to hastily check out early on Saturday with the entire equipment outweighs the 1 hour trip between the loft and FrOSCon. * The Ideas list looks very promising. In order to make the most out of the Hackfest, preparations should begin now. For example, I really want the Git move to happen in October, so let's not hesitate with all necessary source tree restructuring and testing. There has been no meeting announced for tomorrow, so I'm unsure whether we will have one. In case we do, let's handle any outstanding questions tomorrow. Cheers, Colin

About ATL wrappers - atlex
by Alexander Sh. 16 Jul '17

16 Jul '17

Hello, I am sanchaez (Alexander Shaposhnikov) - a GSoC student working on RAPPS. I've found a set of useful wrappers for ATL on Github - https://github.com/Amebis/atlex. I have some questions: 1. It is GPLv3. Is it compatible with ROS license? Can I use them? 2. If I can, where to place it in the source folders? P.S. I've rushed a little by committing it to my branch. "It lies in reactos\sdk\include\reactos" for now. Thanks in advance, Alexander

Ethereum for fundraiser
by Erkin Alp Güney 13 Jul '17

13 Jul '17

Ethereum is a decentralised cryptocurrency based on proof of work and proof of stake consensus with Turing-complete scripting. Utilising Ethereum for fundraiser will allow us to remove the middlemen from raising funds and allow us to distribute them more directly. I want to be first contract programmer for ReactOS ethereum account. Any kind of release schemes may be developed. However, this will need detailed discussion and official approval first. Yours, faithfully Erkin Alp
