Not so long ago there was a leak of windows’ source code, up to xp and 2003 server… the leak was so complete there are videos on YouTube about people building and booting (!!!) windows from there.
And yet, no big leap in ReactOS (at least for now).
They need to train an LLM with the windows source code and ask it to write an windows clone.
Apparently copyright law only applies for humans, generative AI gets away with stealing because there is too much monetary interest involved in looking the other way.
Wow, so you're saying "Windows but with even less reliability and more security problems plus tech debt"?
I don't think the world really needs that. :)

To me that just sound like it will make ReactOS much more Windows-like. So it's probably a win for the project. \s
IIRC ReactOs forbids you from contributing if you had access to the windows source code in some way shape or form.
