Hi Marc, the patch / bug IS valid, Magnus made a mistake and closed it.
I wanted to do the same, but it's rather timeconsuming, so I appreciate you took the first steps. Still, some modules may require setting some specific version - that's allright, we can leave some exceptions for now, but otherwise, version number should be set globally, not in every .rbuild file (which is so wrong).
WBR, Aleksey Bragin.

Hi,
On the reactos frontpage I see that the project aims to reimplement WindowsXP , that is NT 5.2 , but currently most of the modules define their own target version ranging from NT4 to NT 5.3 (2003) .On recent shell32 commits I have even seen someone introducing Vista-only APIs.
I think an effort has to be done to fix that situation ,IMHO targeting multiple windows versions is fine but not a mix of them so I recently posted a bug report on mozilla to have it present at least. http://www.reactos.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2745 but It has been marked as invalid and I can't understand the reason given, I may be wrong about that but I'd like to know what I'm missing here, can anyone clarify?
