[ros-kernel] Hey guys...

[Aleksey Bragin]

Hi,
this discussion is becoming some kind of voting (use/don't use the fonts),
but Richard's point-of-view is right -- if we can use
high/production-quality fonts, and EULA allows this to us (really --- we
don't seeking a hidden way in EULA to use them, it should be clear according
to Richard -- or it allows us without any sueing, or it is illegal), why not
to use them? We are NOT Linux, and I just can't agree to people saying:
"Please do not use Microsoft *anything* from them! If there is a *eula* what
ever!"
But we use MANY things from Microsoft Windows --- starting from kernel
architecture, binary compatible drivers and ending with user interface. We
are NOT creating another Linux, we're creating an OpenSource Windows-clone.
And it's pointless to say such an absolute sentences in the future. I don't
say about really illegal stuff --- ReactOS MUST be clear from illegal stuff.

With the best regards,
Aleksey Bragin.
