This is not the first time Windows code leaks. I also have a vague recollection of one of these projects actually having to rip out and rewrite a subsystem because it turned out to be too close to original Windows sources found in one of those previous leaks.

In short, this leak likely won’t affect any project that is seriously trying to reimplement substantial parts of Windows, if they care at all for US law.
