No my point was because it would be a pain to explain to some pointy
haired boss in a mega-corporation. The amount of Microsoft code we use
is very very insubstantial and for the record I am not opposed to
using Microsoft code in certain ways. I would have no problem shipping
the MS Webfonts or the WIX packaging tools on the website as downloads
from a ReactOS live service or as addons in rosapps. My point is that
for the sake of explanation and the case of ReactOS being independent
I think we should remove the code. I emailed to seek feedback on that
before calling for a vote as we seem to have enough of them going on
atm......
