I hope so. I have been talking it over with some of the ReReactOSuys and there 
may
be one of two that have interest. They are currently looking for a company that
is interested in adapting Windows to XeXeno spsponsorhe effort.

It already works well in QEQEmund VMVMwareut we get a lot of requests from
the Linux community for more of a direct port to Linux and XeXenight be the 
solution.
Captive-NTNTFSort of did this by making a copy of ReReactOStntoskrnlun in 
ususerspaceand allowing
it to load the Windows NTNTFSys. The idea is that if you could make ReReactOS
run as a subsystem of Linux then you might get better cocompatiblityith Windows 
applications then just trying to run all of Wine in ususerspace.epespeciallyith 
all 
of the changes to the Windows design in the past few years.

Thanks
Steven
