ReactOS is cloning NT, so the 2000 part of that is correct.
95/98/98se/ME are completely different beasts, even if they happen to share the same GUI.
I am well aware of the difference between 95/98 and 2000/XP. I actually used 95/98 and eventually switched to 2000 and then XP.
Turns out that ReactOS is indeed focused on turn of the millennium NT support. They say their target is Windows Server 2003.
I always thought that 95/98 era support was also a key goal due to he history of the project.
