The ReactOS Team has released version 0.2.9 of it's operating system,
designed to be compatible with the Windows NT5 model. This release
brings improvements to the network model allowing applications such as
firefox to run, significant improvements to the Plug and Play now
provide a basic working model able to detect and load drivers, plus many
other feature additions and bug fixes.

I want to personally send a big "Thanks" to all those developers that
made this project what it has become!

ReactOS is coming along really well...
A simple change in the next release would make a LOT of difference...
Change from a Serif font to a Sans Serif Font...
The Serif Font which is the current default just looks clunky and
doesn't look right.
Other than that, things are coming along GREAT!!!
I like the new VMWare Player Image. Great idea!
Another thought... Why not change the word "Start" on the Start
button to "React"?
:)
Great work people!
I can't wait until I can use ReactOS as my "Daily Driver".
I wish I had programming skills so I could contribute something.
I can write documentation. I might be able to help with that...

Sunday night I will remove the svn.reactos.com DNS entry, please use
svn.reactos.org in the future. If you currently have a working copy checked
out from svn://svn.reactos.com you can tell svn to use svn.reactos.org in
the future by:

If you're using Tortoise:

Or if you have no local changes you could just delete your working copy and
check out a new one from reactos.org.
If you insist on using svn.reactos.com, add a line "213.173.252.2
svn.reactos.com" to your hosts file (/etc/hosts for Linux/Unix,
%SystemRoot%\System32\drivers\etc\hosts on Windows).

Hallo,
I'm quite new to this list. I kept watching ros-translate for a while.
Yesterday I installed reactos in vmware from the .iso file, not the
prefabricated vmware-image.
The Installaer for svga-drivers of vmware during setup is great.
But I still can find no info on the net on howto install the vmware
networkcard.
I don't find the wiki entry very usefull.
(http://www.reactos.org/wiki/index.php/HOWTO/setup_a_network_connection)
Especially the registry key:
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\PCNet1 does not exists
PCNet - obviously is supposed to be the name of the vmware-nic.
If anybody can help me install the nic-drivers I'd like to write a how-to in
the wiki - both in english as well as in german.
Greetings

Hello,
I saw a Visual Studio 2005 installation screenshot in reactOs home page. Is
it possible to actually run it? What about VS.Net 2003?
Thanks,

Hi
I bit sick of correct it hold time for make a rc compile with ms vs
to right one.
Here is the rule to use it
Rule for SUBLANG_DEFAULT
Basic all langues only have one offcial langues must use SUBLANG_DEFAULT
example Czech, Danish, Hungarian, Polish and more.
Rule for SUBLANG_NEUTRAL
basic all langues only have more one offcial langues must use SUBLANG_NEUTRAL
example German, French, English, Swedish, and more
please think of this when you are writen or change .rc file.
Thanks
