If this is the new and improved ReactOS?,,, One reason to hate wine,
so let'us become the thing we most hate.

LOL!!! HAaaahaaahahhaaaaaAAaaahh~ OMG! I just got
it! If the automated
testing system would, say, pass all the test in windows 2008,,,, LOL~
does that mean our patches would always fail and the automated system
would, just, like kick them out anyway? Phuc! lets do it! Sounds like
fun! Oh, weez a-bit see-re-usz now~


Okay, it official! The new development model is unaccepted, I'm going
to use the GLP to enforce that right. It is all or nothing and a vote
will not do! The consensus is a stalemate so the move is disapproved.
The ONEs that disagree are welcomed to fork the tree. ReactOS stays as
it always, FREE and OPEN! A collective controls the source not one.

Get back to work, we have a release coming due.
