My counter parts and I in the ReactOS project have been wondering the
the same. We started with the goal of Windows NT 4.0 compatiblity in
mind but would like to adopt more 2k-isms like wdm and such so we are
changing our target. ATM ReactOS bombs very nicely on the kernel32_tests
so having a stable target for regressions that both WINE and ReactOS can
share would be a good thing.
Thanks
