Can you define working, and to what extent?

Programs that can't perform their basic functionality are fine to post, but make sure you actually say what you found the program can and cannot do. It's quite aggravating when someone posts a program that only boots but nothing more and yet says nothing about that. The best kind of post thoroughly tests a program and lists what doesn't work yet.

As you can see this demo has a slight graphic glitch (I think that is actually because of the resolution of the game), but is otherwise playable. I couldn't get the EWJ2 DOS demo to work though.
Still have to buy the full versions of EWJ 1+2 and EWJ 3D, all for Windows. I'll do that in a couple of months...

If, by "slight graphic glitch", you're talking about this strange vertical band at the left, then you need to report this problem on Jira, because it is certainly due to some scrolling code that was implemented 1 week ago max. and which is known to be not perfect.

Some people experience problems logging into Jira when they are new here, but you have been around long enough for you to be able to log in at Jira. Try logging out on the front page of reactos.org, then log in again, then see if you can log in at the Jira page.

But trying to get the username sent to me it apparently doesn't exist for my email.

Did I do something wrong?
