Not surprising when you compare some leaked NT code and some ReactOS code. I'm not even saying they straight copied the source btw, but some consider that disassembling as a reference is fine (and using MS symbols...). Well it might even be legal in some cases (more cases that some licence-aware people commonly imagine), but this is a really risky stance to take. For sure ReactOS is very far from clean-room.
