Windows is not even source-available. Windows XP is source-unintentionally-available thanks to a leak but there's no AI loophole in that.

Does anyone know of any place to keep up with what people are doing with the XP leak? I vaguely remember some 4chan threads where people worked to get it compiling properly, and I think someone ported USB 3.0 support, but I lost track after that.
