Mistake on the Wiki
At the botoom of the Wiki page has you wrote " ReactOs Fundation" or similar but this is not correct to german (and other) laws, not the fundation, the autor has the rights on his texts!
Same in the US, BUT...
when you edit a page there is the following text:
"Please note that all contributions to ReactOS are considered to be released under the GNU Free Documentation License (see ReactOS:Copyrights for details)."
So iit's understood that anything you add to the Wiki becomes the property of the ROSF, even though it's also then released under the GFDL.

In germany we have a other sytem then in the usa/canada we cant sale the copyright to another person or a company. We can only sale the rights to use it!

I'm wondering what reference to the ReactOS Foundation you're referring to? If I look at e.g. http://reactos.com/wiki/index.php/Main_Page I see the following text near the bottom:
* This page was last modified 20:40, 8 Feb 2005.
* This page has been accessed 952 times.
* Content is available under GNU Free Documentation License 1.2.
* About ReactOS
* Disclaimers
No mention of ReactOS Foundation whatsoever?

Oh, now I see. There's a "© ReactOS Foundation" near the bottom of the main page. Well, I guess whoever wrote the main page decided to assign the copyright of that single page to the foundation. It doesn't mean that the copyrights of all the pages belong to the foundation!
