Secrets of the Application Compatibility Database

Alex Ionescu, one of the lead developers behind the ReactOS project, has
published a detailed article on the XP/Vista application compatibility
system. "For the last few days, I've been intimately becoming aquainted
with a piece of technology in Windows XP and Vista that rarely gets the
attention it deserves. It has raised my esteem and admiration towards
Microsoft ten fold, and I feel it would be wise to share it, publicize it,
and then of course, find (positive) ways to exploit it to turn it into a
powerful backend for various purposes."
