Hi everybody.
It's been a long time that I follow this project, even if I was pretty quiet, and I think it is now time to make my own contribution. Some of you might remind some attempts to work on kernel32 winetests., and it turned out that I needed something more motivational. I found that reactX is an abandoned field, and so I think that it would be a real challenge to get things working. I have already some patches, which get the ddraw initialization a bit further that where it manages to go in trunk.
Regards Jérôme (aka zefklop)
PS: I'd like to talk with you about that on IRC, but unfortunately I am behind proxy which refuses it....
As for the proxy, you could try using java based freenode web client: http://java.freenode.net/
Using irc would give you a communication edge, quite important in early stages of development. As our previous ReactX developer, GreatLord - is away from the project indefinitely, you might be forced to arrange things all by yourself. You should speak with Fireball about your plans. Also, the people you might want to stay in touch are: jimtabor, tkreuzer (win32 subsys) and Pigglesworth (wined3d, opengl).

Thanks for the tip, but it doesn't work :-(

Unfortunately, I'll have to stay on the ML, and send patches to bugzilla. Here is a first one, I'm waiting for your comments :-) http://www.reactos.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4862

The work is great! It reverts back to the state we had about two years ago. We have moved from windows 2000 and updated our wiki to reflect our research.
Please read through our wiki for updated information and research.... http://www.reactos.org/wiki/Techwiki/win32k/structures http://www.reactos.org/wiki/Techwiki/win32k/PDEVOBJ

Hi everybody.
I just wanted to tell you that even if I was silent for quite some time now, I'm still working on this, even more now than RL has calmed down. I have begun working on the user side of ddraw. Currently, I implemented IDirectDraw:CreatePalette (needs testing!) and almost all ddraw->refcount winetests pass when using it on winXP. Patch is on bugzilla : http://www.reactos.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4909
