Hi Vizzini,
I'm back again and will do the release from 0.1.5 again.
I'm going to do some experimenting today to get it all up and running again
with the latest stuff.
Greets,
Nick

> ReactOS 0.1.5 has been tagged and branched and is now officially in

> cvs up -r ros-branch-0_1_5

> Please remember that the branch is now in feature freeze, which means
> that it is open to bugfixes but not to new feature development. Also,
> if you have a nontrivial or destabilizing bugfix, please run it by the
> list first.

> One minor policy change: as discussed during the last release cycle,
> any developer who commits a change on the branch is responsible for
> committing that change on HEAD as well. It will not be moved by me or
> the release engineer(s).
