- We need a roadmap for the future.
Agreed.
- We have to have regression testing in place.
Yes - Casper's doing a lot of great work on this; with regards to WineHQ tests, well, we'll have to see if we can't find a way to integrate them. Right now let's just focus on getting the Continuous Integration System going.
- We need to improve our documentation and
website.
I've already thought about this a lot; definitely a wiki for the Library - with access only to devs to make changes; a wiki doesn't have to allow just anyone to make a change and I don't think that's a good idea. I've already introduced MedaWiki at work (it powers Wikipedia.com) and would really want to get this on reactos.com for our Library -- probably a few other pages as well.
I don't want to see a wiki only site. A wiki doesn't enforce structure, which is nice for something like a blog or list of compatible hardware/software, or forum. We'll use the best software suited to the job -- this means that a lot of effort will have to go into integration: search but more importantly login.
It's just that to get there is a ton of work! The website needs its own roadmap, for sure.
Mr. Filby, i have ofered twice to colaborate with my limited capabilities in the proyect, i have offered to actualize the website from time to time, and the made of a FAQ (this will be more difficult, as i will have to test and ask many howtos on reactos) if you find this could be usefull.
I am still waiting for an answer.
Best regards, Lucio Diaz-Flores.

Thanks for your interest in the site; please subscribe to ros-web if you have not already done so. A plan to move the site forward is being drawn up and things should soon start happening.
Thanks for the FAQ; I've kept your email for when I have more time to post it on the site.
Regards Jason
responding to library doc.
I recendly came over the mono website and it impressed me when I saw their "msdn". They built a tree like MS did and baked the leaves with generated or written doc. Maybe we should just knock on their dor and ask them for the source and methods they use.

They're using their tool MonoDoc which is something like JavaDoc for C#. It builds documentation from comments embedded in the source code or from separate files with markups. We're doing the same with doxygen (http://reactos.com/doxygen/), but it's not much usefull without the source code being annotated...
