Gé van Geldorp 8d07772195 Sync to Wine-20050111:
Michael Stefaniuc <mstefani@redhat.de>
- Do not check for non NULL pointer before HeapFree'ing it. It's
  redundant.
Eric Pouech <pouech-eric@wanadoo.fr>
- Fixed some errors in function prototypes.
- ReadFile and WriteFile must be passed a parameter for the number of
  handled bytes when no overlapped operation is done.
- Removed excessive statement (break after return or goto, not useful
  break, not needed vars...)
Robert Shearman <rob@codeweavers.com>
- Remove unnecessary WNDPROC casts.
- Document how thread-safety is ensured for each member of the
  stub_manager and ifstub structs.
- Make stub_manager ref counted to ensure it doesn't get freed whilst
  it is still being used.
- ifstubs are now freed only when the controlling stub_manager is freed.
- Rename stub_manager_ref/unref to stub_manager_ext_addref/release
  respectively and make then take an unsigned long to prevent
  malicious callers from passing in a negative value and corrupting
  the ref count.
- Rename iid in wine_marshal_id to ipid and use IPIDs instead of IIDs in
  the stub manager.
- The channel buffer can be NULL if the proxy is disconnected, so check
  for this before releasing it.
- Make the ClassFactory proxy support aggregation.
- Document how thread-safety is ensured for each member of the
  stub_manager and ifstub structs.
- Make stub_manager ref counted to ensure it doesn't get freed whilst
  it is still being used.
- ifstubs are now freed only when the controlling stub_manager is freed.
- Rename stub_manager_ref/unref to stub_manager_ext_addref/release
  respectively and make then take an unsigned long to prevent
  malicious callers from passing in a negative value and corrupting
  the ref count.
- The current architecture cannot handle pipes changing address, so use
  a static array. Fixes memory corruption that sometimes occurs when
  using multiple pipes.
- Fix race on apartment creation.
- Display errors in decimal to make searching for the meaning in
  winerror.h easier.
- Move named pipe macros into rpc.c.
- Remove unneeded function.
- Implement COM local servers using table marshaling to avoid doing the
  marshaling in a child thread where COM has not been initialized.
- Remove unneeded includes and the unused COMPOBJ_hInstance32 variable.
- Make the wine_marshal_id structure more like the DCOM OBJREF
  structure, by replacing the process id field by apartment id (OXID),
  changing the users of the process id field to use the new field and
  renaming the objectid field to oid.
- Fix StdMarshalImpl_UnmarshalInterface to invalidate and release its
  stub when doing a same apartment marshal.
- Fixed incorrect unsigned test.
- Add tracing for proxy ref count functions.
- Release the channel on proxy destruction.
- Implement proxy manager.
- Add documentation to several functions.
- Coding style changes according to the style Mike and I have agreed
  upon for COM related files.
- Use OBJREF on the wire for generic marshaling functions.
- Add some function declarations to objbase.h.
- Add stubs for server ref counting.
- Implement HRESULT marshaling.
- Make struct oletls ref counted so that it is only detached from the
  apartment on the final CoUninitialize.
- Decrease the size of the crit sec on destroying an apartment - it is
  only needed for touching the apartment list.
- Small cleanups.
Mike Hearn <mh@codeweavers.com>
- Implement the COM stub manager, refactor the current stub code.
- Begin implementing interface stubs.
- Make apartment access thread-safe by introducing refcounting and
  wider usage of the apartment lock.
- Rework OLE TLS management to eliminate uninitialised apartments and
  parent chaining.
- Comment out an assert, as we don't yet implement IRemUnknown.
- Propagate apartments through the intermediate threads, make listener
  thread apartment scoped.
- Rename the STUBMGR thread to more accurately reflect its purpose.
- Add a DCOM todo list.
Mike McCormack <mike@codeweavers.com>
- Test and fix a few problems with OLE storage streams.
- Allow COM to start services containing COM servers.
- Tests and fixes for StgOpenStorage.
- Test and fix StgCreateDocFile grfModes.
Paul Vriens <Paul.Vriens@xs4all.nl>
- use Interlocked* functions in AddRef and Release.
- store the result of the Interlocked functions and use only this.
Francois Gouget <fgouget@free.fr>
- Assorted spelling fixes.
Alexandre Julliard <julliard@winehq.org>
- Janitorial: C booleans must not be compared against TRUE.
Bill Medland <billmedland@mercuryspeed.com>
- Corrected testing for multithreaded (based upon observations by Paul
  Vriens, Christian Costa and Robert Shearman).
- Added TRACE for investigating OXID errors.

========================
ReactOS Version 0.2.x
Updated June 23rd, 2004
========================

1. What is ReactOS?

   ReactOS is an Open Source effort to develop a quality operating system
that is compatible with Windows NT applications and drivers.

   The ReactOS project, although currently focused on Windows NT 4.0
compatibility, is always keeping an eye towards compatibility with
future Windows NT releases, that is, Windows 2000 (NT 5.0) and
Windows XP (NT 5.1).

More information is available at http://www.reactos.com.

2. Building ReactOS

See the INSTALL file for more details.

3. More information

See the doc subdirectory for some sparse notes
