ReactOS and AOO
Hi all,
ReactOS [1] has made some great improvements lately and I decided to
install it in VirtualBox and test AOO.
The App Manager only has AOO 4.1.5 listed, so I created a Pull Request
to update the database [2].
AOO still has some repaint issues but I really like the combination...
Regards,
Matthias

I haven't got an idea, but at the moment I would doubt it...
Since ReactOS is still an Alpha version, it would be a great step if AOO
actually *runs* on it.
Basically, now it starts up with some graphical glitches.
But I would say, AOO is the perfect Office Solution for ReactOS in the
long term. ;-)

Hi Matthias,
Any chance of building AOO on this?
Best regards,
Carl

I always wanted to stop by their booth, but didn't manage to.

That's most likely, so they can take our project to see how compatible
they are.
However, if they find something on our side we can easily fix it.
Next, I will try a daily build, since there was some progress in memory
management lately.

That makes sense.

I have spoken to the Project booth guy on FOSDEM 2017 I think.
I have been told if Windows Works and ReactOS has some error it is most
likely an issue on their side and it should be reported there, since the
goal is to be 100% compatible with Windows.
Also they have said, we should use the Windows SDK for the same reason.
All the best
Peter

Well, it basically is an open-source Windows. So our normal Windows
binaries can be installed.
And it is still classified as "Alpha".
But of course there could be an exchange between the two projects, to
solve the existing graphical problems.
I will take care of updating the database for our new releases...

that's great news. Thanks for this.
Do you think that it is possible to get this improved in the near
future? Then we could add this OS to the list of possible operating
systems - even when we do not actively support this platform.
