I agree it's desirable as a basic sort of utility for the doc formats it supports, so nothing should disallow it. I'm just pointing out that getting it to target ROS doesn't appear to be easy enough they will still want to support older systems, as Win API compiles, with Win 11 possibly looking to target 64 bit only given the failures to build using VS19. This could be bug in VS19 too, I don't know.

my point is, to allow them to still support XP/2003 systems (and, of course,ReactOS :) )

They have to commit to build/sln configurations based on VS2010-17 in parallel with current VS2019 config, it appears, before it is a candidate for ROS to support as part of the rosapp collection. While some support for mingw builds is present, it is considered unsuitable for doing release builds. Due to these full RosBE integration seems implausible for Windows and ROS versions to stay in synch.

No, the answer is "if sumatraPDF compiles in ROS, we may support it"

lets check it in ROS then xD

"for them to support reactos, would be to support older windows versions" why? ROS is (more or less) XP :)

Essentially the answer is 'patches are welcome'? :')
And anyway, for them to support reactos, would be to support older windows versions. Then it's reactos's job to support *it*.
