[ros-dev] Audit for non-code things?

[Aleksey Bragin]

Audit doesn't touch only source code -- it does touch artwork also.

Thanks for your information - I think mf is familiar with artwork, and could 
audit it, and fix such errors. And I know he already began the process - 
results were in the 'audited' repository, and should have been transferred 
to svn://svn.reactos.org/reactos/trunk/reactos .


WBR,
Aleksey Bragin.
