[ros-kernel] 0.2 RC1 Changelog

[Jason Filby]

Hi all

ReactOS 0.2 RC1 will be made available on reactos.com today. Below is

the long version of the changelog I've compiled. Please let me know
if 
anything is missing/incorrect. But if I've already release 0.2 RC1, 
still email me, because the changelog for RC2(?) and the final
release 
can still be updated after that.

Cheers
Jason
