WINE for Reactos

Hi Everyone,

For those of you who don't know, Reactos (www.reactos.com) is an open source
(GPL) attempt to write an NT compatible operating system.

By the end of the year the kernel should be developed enough to support a
GUI.

My first thought was to grab the xfree86 source code and use the bitmaps,
etc. from there and program my own USER32.DLL. However, if WINE can be
altered to run on ReactOS then maybe this is the correct route to go (I am
downloading the latest source from the CVS tree at the moment).

Just a couple of questions ...

1) Is there already a version of WINE that can run a Win32?

2) If not, I'm assuming that I would have to rewrite user32.dll and try to
incorporate the bitmaps from xfree86 (or a similar project).

Any help would be much appreciated!

Kind Regards,

Nick Date.
