I see that this is the older of ROS version 0.3.4, Reactos is available 0.3.13 has been released, Is ReactOS legal?
"Yes. It's fully legal.
Developers have not looked at Windows® source code. They have used the public documentation of Windows® OSes. They have made several tests to understand how Windows® works. In fact, ReactOS does the same things Windows® does, but not exactly in the same way, because they haven't the same source code.

I don't think they reverse-engineered the Windows NT kernel, that would be illegal. I'm pretty sure they studied how Windows works and built up 100% Windows-free code to build ReactOS. I believe it works well with applications do to WINE being used as the compatibility layer.

@mobilephone2003 bull s***, thats AOL, there's no excuse for using AOL

@ItchyFlea1 On the contrary, They took all of the open sourced elements from the windows code, and anything they can not use from scratch, they coded themselves. They are being very careful not to use ANY copyrighted code, and they have to be able to, and ARE able to prove it is their own code, so it is 100% legal. This is also why development of ReactOS is slow.
