From the WinBeta subforum of reboot.pro:
I'm Pierre Schweitzer, one of the ReactOS developers. This is a free operating system that aims to re-implement Windows, but this time with an open source license.
ReactOS now supports reading files from NTFS volume. This was a long awaited feature people were asking for. And here it is.
You can see what I'm talking about on the three pictures [included in the fine article].

I don't have a use for ReactOS, and I may never. However, I do have to admire the project for the cool factor. Some extremely hardcore programmers (i.e. The Nightwatch [microsoft.com]) are waging an impossible battle. This is the equivalent of 300 -- but with programmers. And the tickets are free!
I'm seeing comments whining about the lack of parity with current Windows, like they've been done a disservice because ReactOS doesn't do what they need, or as if the ReactOS team should give up. WTH? This is real nerd news -- this is awesome. If you're only interested in polished products, then you're just another end user. Otherwise, kick on some experimental kernel features and join the party. ;-)
