Hi,
I want ReactOS to become free again. From gnu.org,

Free software is a matter of the users' freedom to run, copy, distribute, study, change and improve 
the software. More precisely, it refers to four kinds of freedom, for the users of the software:

* The freedom to run the program, for any purpose (freedom 0).
* The freedom to study how the program works, and adapt it to your needs (freedom 1). Access to 
   the source code is a precondition for this.
* The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor (freedom 2).
* The freedom to improve the program, and release your improvements to the public, so that the whole 
community benefits (freedom 3). Access to the source code is a precondition for this.

We forget what this is all about. We need to be liberated from the shackles and chains.


Replace "Tainted Developers" with this:

Referring to Proprietary Programs:
Don't in any circumstances refer to any closed source proprietary code for or during your work on 
ReactOS! (Or to any other proprietary programs, Unix, Novel, Solaris, Microsoft,.)
If you have a vague recollection of the internals of a closed source program, this does not 
absolutely mean you can't write an imitation of it, but do try to organize the imitation internally 
along different lines, because this is likely to make the details of the software version irrelevant 
and dissimilar to your results.

It's from:
http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Reading-Non_002dFree-Code.html#Reading-Non_002dFree-Code

If is good for FSF/GNU it's good enough for us. I don't think we need to vote on this, just
change it! Remember this is GNU/ReactOS! Not SFLC/Wine!


Thanks,
James
