I cant wait for the final release. Now I'm off to see what has changed.Edited 2007-07-23 13:33 Mon, 23 Jul 2007 13:27:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (Dirge) Comments http://www.osnews.com/thread?257447 http://www.osnews.com/thread?257447 This is not an official release and wasn't really intended to be made public yet.

However, it is a vast improvement over the previous release for any curious OS fans. It's worth waiting for the official release though.

The changelog is no where near finished yet, there were many many more changes than is currently listed there.

This was sorta my point about this not being an official release. Mon, 23 Jul 2007 13:48:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (gedmurphy) Comments http://www.osnews.com/thread?257466 http://www.osnews.com/thread?257466 good to see the signs of stepping forward with the development

and yes, it would be great to know the whole list of changes so another vote goes for the claim "Developers! Finally, those who still didn't bother to summarise your
changes - please do!" Mon, 23 Jul 2007 14:14:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (vege) Comments http://www.osnews.com/thread?257537 http://www.osnews.com/thread?257537 the guys of the react os team are doing stunning work,
i think ReactOS is one of the most (maybe the most) interessting project in our days, and I can't wait to try out every new version.

it's amazing and I really really hope they continue that great work!

(if some reactos developers read OSNews: congrats!)

I mean really use it.

And so an unimportant news.

But a new Newsletter is out:

and that isn't mentioned.

ReactOS is still in an alpha phase and the developers warn every user that it's not suitable for every day use by now. For now ReactOS is only interesting for testing purposes.

Of course nobody uses it! At least not right now...

Give it a good 5 years, let it grow, become sable and compatible enough hardware and applications (Office 200X, DirectX games latter on) and the users will come.

The detail work will only flow that much faster.

For me, I think the most interesting part is what it can contribute in terms of Windows compatibility rather than it being a standalone operating system.

I misread the release number. thought it said "3.3". my bad.

Thanks for the reply.
