While short, it was good to hear progress has been made yet again. It's also refreshing to see we get help from third parties like that.

I'll be starting a new shell-experiments build when I get home tonight. :twisted:

Where would I get this build at? Do I have to compile it or is it an ISO?

Yeah, I'm also interested too. It sounds like an extreme break through in Reactos.
Can't wait. :D :D

ReactOS is actually one of the easiest open source projects to build for yourself (especially if you take the size and complexity of the project into consideration).
Basically you download the RosBE installer, Install it, choose a place for your source and build folders, and type a few commands in the command-prompt.
More detailed information is available in the development guide, and if you get stuck anywhere just ask on the forums or on one of the IRC Channels.

I'll consider uploading the ISO once I finish building it, but I don't know how long it'll take me to get a successful build (I compile ReactOS in a QEMU Virtual Machine running on Windows, so it's really slow, and on top of that I lost my build script, so I'll either have to write a new one or just do it manually).

If you could upload the ISO I would greatly appreciate it. :D My internet is really slow (79K) and the only way I ever compiled ReactOS was downloading the 0.3.15 source code in a zip file from Source forge. I tried using the ssvn create command in RosBe and after an hour it was still downloading. If I could get instructions on how to build an ISO with the shell experiments I might be able to leave my computer running overnight or download it when I have faster internet available.

I downloaded the source code revision bootcd-64577-dbg. How would I do the new shell experiments?

None of the shell stuff is in trunk, you have to go off of David's shell-experiments branch.

And then build it with our RosBE. ^^ anything else is not bein built by default.

Does it have to built with ReactOS or on it's own? Could I have directions on how to compile it?

What Daniel is saying is that branches are not compiled by the project's buildbots by default. A branch IS for all intents and purposes a complete ReactOS checkout. It just might happen to have code that is not ready for general distribution because of stability or incompleteness. For building, see https://www.reactos.org/development/build-environment

I should download the source code and replace the old explorer files with the new files and build?
