ReactOS 0.3.6 Released

In a little over a month since version 0.3.5, we are announcing the release ReactOS 0.3.6. This release along with the rest of the 0.3.x series is still considered alpha quality software, so do not set your expectations too high. ReactOS 0.3.6 is the product of the current development focus: bugfixes, compatibility, and stability. There were more than a thousand commits to the ReactOS Subversion repository this month.

Changes summary

A consolidation of all changes in great details can be found in the changelog. Summing up the most important changes:
  • More architectures support: ARM version improvements, beginnings of x64 architecture support
  • FreeLdr's memory requirements for ReactOS bootup were reduced
  • Driver unloading now possible
  • Numerous kernel fixes and improvements (APC delivery issues, timer issues, lots of work on architecture-independent parts of the memory manager)
  • More Win32 applications are supported now thanks to the fix in the RTL heap implementation (e.g. InnoSetup-based installers, Delphi applications, etc)
  • Network stack bugfixes and memory leaks elimination
  • Win32 subsystem improvements, most of usermode DLLs synced with Wine
