Hi!
I have also ask the question in a mail in the ROS-Mailinglist -- until now there comes now answer. http://www.reactos.org/archives/public/ros-dev/2007-August/009718.html
Will ReactOS and WINE still be steady synchronized?
ROS have for example an other Notepad.exe and an other Wordpad.exe The WineMINE have on ROS the colors of the original Windows WinMine.
And the cards.dll have other cards. AT first it used the cards of http://nifty.stanford.edu/2004/EstellCardGame/ But after the comment of http://www.reactos.org/archives/public/ros-dev/2007-July/009625.html it used the cards at http://sourceforge.net/projects/macsolitairex
WINE on the other side used since the beginning of its cards.dll the Microsoft copyrighted cards, which are also part of MS-Windows.
So, for me it seems, that ROS and WINE goes two different ways since some time without syncronizing the source-codes, which can be used for both projects.
Is that true?
And if yes: Why?

Oh, I have seen, that Ged have been answert at http://www.reactos.org/archives/public/ros-dev/2007-August/009725.html
And he write
"Wine doesn't use ReactOS code, so it will never be back synched."
Why?
Because some people at WINE think, that ROS is illegal without any evidence ?

First of all I'd suggest to use real name if you expect to be not ignored. Next, please take some time to study the subject on your own, and not blame Wine people taking actions without evidence, or in ignorance.

I think the colours of Wine's WineMine were chosen deliberately.
And the cards.dll have other cards. AT first it used the cards of http://nifty.stanford.edu/2004/EstellCardGame/ But after the comment of http://www.reactos.org/archives/public/ros-dev/2007-July/009625.html it used the cards at http://sourceforge.net/projects/macsolitairex

Wine is not using the Microsoft cards.
So, for me it seems, that ROS and WINE goes two different ways since some time without syncronizing the source-codes, which can be used for both projects.

ReactOS has been known for disassembling Microsoft binaries, which is illegal in some countries, notably the US. We want anyone to be able to work on and use Wine without fear of getting sued, therefore we cannot accept code from ReactOS unless it somehow can be established that it has not been disassembled.
There is nothing preventing ReactOS from borrowing Wine code, however.

As far as I understand this, if I disassemble Microsoft binaries (it is legal in Israel), then the resulting knowledge is legal to use - anywhere (in other words - the only one who can be sued is me, and the jurisdiction is Israel, where the action is legal). Do RoS people disassemble binaries in countries in which it is illegal to disassemble them?
