I don't see how we'd not have DirectX, PnP, USB, network etc. Software
does depend on these things.
If an API is undocumented, or the documentation is wrong... As has been
said time and time again, perform clean-room reverse engineering.
This doesn't necessarily apply to stuff we *need* essentially. You might
want some obscure API implemented which is undocumented - all you'd need
to do is make sure it was reversed *cleanly*.
Which requires the interest of at least 2 developers - one to reverse
and document, the other to code.
If that's the general procedure we are to take, then **I don't see what
the problem is**.

Then accoring "2. There exists a third party

behavior" then we can remove whole pnp, directx, win32k, rpc, network, usb
and more. alot of api is undoc or is wrong. WHat we have left no reactos
and I agesnt it. alot of manufactor using undoc api in lowlevel and u need
implement it right. and I do not like we have vote on it. let us work on
how to implement stuff as we have always done.
other wise we can never achive
the goal
