There is now only one large patch left + a smaller one related to it,
which will complete the Dispatcher fixes. After those two patches,
everything in my branch will have been committed. The branch will be
destroyed and I will create the Winsock branch on which Arty and I will
work.

Hi,
Right now, someone has set up an XDCC IRC bot to distribute copies of
ReactOS. While I welcome the move, it raises a question on who is
responsible for the quality of those files. Even if the person means no
harm, the files can get corrupted/infected by the following events:
1) Download corruption
2) Viral infection
3) Hard-disk damage
And perhaps many more. In all cases, this would result in unusable,
dangerous or even damaging releases of ReactOS, which we could not
control. As such, I propose a vote:
[ ] Yes, allow 3rd-party distribution of the OS through the #ros-xdcc
channel and ROS-XDCC-001 bot. (support and encourage this distribution)
[ ] Yes, allow 3rd-party distribution of the OS, but it must clearly
distance itself from officially supported releases (tolerate but do not
support this distribution)
[ ] No, only sourceforge and other official ReactOS distribution points
should be used.
Myself I vote for the first choice, but I would like the following to be
done:
1) Create MD5 Hashes to verify authenticity
2) Set up official communications with the bot's maintainer and
establish a set of guidelines.
Best regards,
Alex Ionescu

I think we should allow use of the name in limited situations. As another poster stated having a
"Dropline ReactOS" is not a bad thing provided that we setup standards on what has the right to be
called "ReactOS" and what does not. If anyone making or distributing a custom version of ReactOS
violates the standards we set forth then we have the right to refuse use of the name.
Thanks
Steven

How not? It works on my box as well as on arty's. :(
There is a little piece of code I left in reactos/subsys/smss/initss.c
that looks like harmless, but that actually crashes smss.exe and
therefore the whole system. The code is in the function
SmpRegisterSmss/0. I can't find myself the bug. The code is currently
wrapped by a #if 0 ... #endif but it is needed to make the SM self
register (to avoid other processaes claim they are the SM). Any hint is
welcome!

I did read it (otherwise I wouldnt vote)
"Bugs that that could have been fixed on trunk are annoying to trunk
developers. The bugfixes that go only to the branch are not in trunk (until
merged there from the branch"
=> trunk developers are free to ask for a merge or use ros-diffs to speed up the merge process.
"* Risk of duplicating work. We'll have more branches to track bugfixes on
so it's harder to know which bugs has been fixed and which hasn't."
you can use ros-svn to track it. And you can fix bugs in bugzilla too.
"Fixed in branch my_branch, feel free to merge."
