I think he wants to say, that we stick to close with Windows. ReactOS really looks like a clone of Windows NT and doesn't have many new features. In my oppinion he is right, maybe we should create something innovative, that is intuitive and compatible to Windows NT, but doesn't clone the whole UI. Maybe we should think of a redesign of the UI, but at the moment I think the kernel should have a higher priority.

No one has said you can't be innovative, but you have to be realistic. Inventing a whole new super-optimized driver model or a new user interface that makes users more productive isn't easy and requires a lot of resources to do. So what do you want? An OS that does more of what people have come to expect from a modern OS or an OS that does much less of that and something in a completely new way. You can't do both since ReactOS has limited resources like any other software project.
