Hello to all three of you.  I'm one of the two release engineers for ReactOS and we're happy to have anyone come and help.  To at least point you guys in the right direction, here is a link from the ReactOS site.  These provide basic tutorials on building and testing ROS (though we badly need to update the testing sections).
