The version string cutoff started to happen when we switched from SVN with its short revision number to git with the longer hashes. 0.4.7-dev-502-gc2c66af was the first git-only rev (2017-Oct-03) This brings the dialogs layout closer to XP. Also fixes some other truncations for specific languages. And unifies the touched text controls sizes for all languages. The credits have been moved to readme.txt where they are more present and we can avoid having to groom all languages files each time we want to add a new dev (and sysdm.cpl to grow each time). Less maintenance. 0.4.15-dev-1629-g9aa73da gcc 8.4.0 dbg RosBE2.2.1 I18N=all binary size sysdm.cpl before: 925.696bytes after: 705.024bytes readme.txt still fits into a single NTFS cluster afterwards with 3702bytes |

======================== ReactOS™ Version 0.4.x Updated January 20, 2021 ======================== 1. What is ReactOS? ------------------- ReactOS™ is an Open Source effort to develop a quality operating system that is compatible with applications and drivers written for the Microsoft® Windows™ NT family of operating systems (NT4, 2000, XP, 2003, Vista, Seven). More information is available at: https://reactos.org/ 2. Relationship with the WINE project ------------------------------------- ReactOS has always intended to work with the WINE project to share as much programming effort as possible. This mainly concerns User Mode DLLs and still happens to a degree today. Other areas of cooperation lie in applications and testing suites. 3. Future compatibility ----------------------- The ReactOS project, although currently focused on Windows Server 2003 compatibility, is always keeping an eye toward compatibility with Windows Vista and future Windows NT releases. 4. Supporting other System Applications --------------------------------------- The Windows NT architecture allows for subsystems, as does the ReactOS architecture. A subsystem is an implementation of the APIs of another operating system, allowing ReactOS to run applications from other systems. We are already looking at subsystems for: Java, OS/2, and DOS and possibly others in the future. 5. Is ReactOS legal? -------------------- Yes we are. All the code of ReactOS has been written from scratch by our developers. We go to great lengths to ensure that the code our developers create is clean, same applies to the variety of methods we use to understand Windows internals, including clean room reverse engineering, using existing documentation freely available both in books and on the web, using extensive tests (tens of millions) which apply black box engineering methods against both public and private APIs exposed by the operating system. 6. Tutorials ------------ Developer and User Tutorials: https://reactos.org/wiki The tutorials contain more information on the project, compiling and testing ReactOS - amongst other topics. Contributors to the project are always welcome. 7. Frequently Asked Questions ----------------------------- Some of your questions may be answered in: https://reactos.org/faq/ In addition, the ReactOS forum: https://reactos.org/forum/ may contain complementary, yet non-official, information. 8.
