0.3.15?

Hi all,

is this some kind of a belated April's Fool joke?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ReactOS

- the next release is described as coming on 23rd Dec.

While I really do hope that you will make a release soon again (just as the other never-releasing OSes finally "moved", i.e. Haiku & NetBSD, with FreeBSD coming soon), I guess I've missed any "official" announcement.

So... what is the "real" status with regard to 0.3.15, if I may ask? - If it is correct, what Wikipedia says, great, but if not, I propose getting rid of it to not look ridiculous when it does not happen...

I Checked the history.

The Change was from Nov 11 and as username is an IP 109.95.19.167.

But one Day after this Change Aleksey did another one and did not correct this release date. (maybe he didn't notice)

but this is really strange...

Let's say that user called "Aleksey Bragin" did this ;) It's not automatically sure this is work of ReactOS project lead.

EDIT: typo

If this article don't have mistake, 0.3.15 is good ! Because you have the sata (for modern computer). I'm running only reactos with MobaliveCD which is doing an emulation with qemu. And so, i could see my "hard-disks" correctly. Currently, there is a bug, and informations are not correctly (i have a standard HDD 1.5 to, and a raptor 130go => reactos says: 120 to !!!).

Well... Dont forget about the Difference in writing HDD sizes... MB vs MiB. HDD producers use MB, Windows and ROS use MiB

I guess that 1.5TB + 130 GB != 120 TB :-)

While we cannot be certain unless Fireball confirms it, that IP you give is certainly in Russia. I did a WhoIs lookup on it.

Is here somebody with better investigative skills, who can name the "culprit"? :)

Then a hearty "thank you"! You and your developer- and testing-colleagues really could not make us a better "present"!
