ReactOS The latest ReactOS Newsletter is out. "I've been assured by our release engineer that there are only 2 blocking issues left and that [0.3.1] will be released soon. That said, a kind user compiled the 0.3.1 branch and provided the isos for public trials here. I spoke with our project leader about future releases and he went on to say that future releases (0.3.x) will be made every month or 2."

Yeah, Linus, leave that Minix alone! What a waste!

But seriously, I don't think of ReactOS as a Windows clone. I think of it as a Windows-like OS, just like BSD and Linux are Unix-like OS's. When all is said and done, I believe ReactOS will have areas where it is better than Windows.

All I know is that as a Windows-trained developer and an FOSS advocate, I look forward to a solid ReactOS. I can then use my Windows developer skills with a Free development environment (E.g., DevC++) to create true FOSS software that runs on a Windows-like OS that is also Free.

By the way, Minix 3 rocks!
