Wineconf 2009
by Steven Edwards 30 May '09

30 May '09

Hi, I just wanted to let everyone know that Wineconf 2009 is going to be held in Holland on Nov 6-8th. I am of course planning on attending and Fireball said that he might as well. If any ReactOS developers are interested in going and don't have the resources, speak up and perhaps some of the users and advocates that follow ReactOS development would be willing to contribute $5 or $10 to the Foundation on your behalf. Information (what little there is currently) is here: http://wiki.winehq.org/WineConf2009 The ReactOS foundation Donation page is here http://www.reactos.org/en/foundation_donate.html Also while there has been some heated exchanges with Wine and ReactOS developers in the past, we do get quite a lot in terms of code from them so if your interested in helping them out, you can donate to the Wine Development Fund, which will help pay for Wine developers to attend. The donation link is on the main page of Winehq.org Thanks -- Steven Edwards "There is one thing stronger than all the armies in the world, and that is an idea whose time has come." - Victor Hugo

Foundation charters
by Zachary Gorden 07 May '09

07 May '09

Some of you may have noticed I recently uploaded the charter for the ReactOS Foundation, the original Russian and an English translation, up to the site. These are NOT to be translated into any further languages. I'm fairly certain I've locked the pages correctly, but even if I haven't, don't translate them. We'll be maintaining a copy of each charter in the original language as well as one English translation and that is it. Z98

Font Problem with ReactOS 0.3.9 & Firefox 3
by Jacek Rużyczka 01 May '09

01 May '09

Hello, I am now trying out ReactOS 0.3.9 in a VirtualBox VM. After installing Firefox 3, I realized that texts are being displayed very incorrectly in the browser window: The chracters are in inappropriate positions, so that blanks appear where there should not be a blank, or two characters are drawn one above the other,...a typical kerning problem. I tried this out with different websites, but the problems are always the same. Any hints? Regards Jacek Rużyczka ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Szukasz pracy?
