[ros-dev] MyReactOS: A Proof of Concept

[Adam Kachwalla]

I am wondering, why don't you have it as "my.reactos.org" instead of  
"myreactos.org" though? I feel it may benefit as you don't have to manage  
two domains, and since it is a part of ReactOS making it a sub-domain  
makes it look as if it is an official ReactOS site.
