## Source excerpt

Hi there! My name is Trevor Thompson and I'm working on NTFS write support for Google Summer of Code 2016. Status Update: I now know the basics of windbg. I'm surprised at how powerful this tool is! A few weeks ago, Pierre asked if I could take a look at largemcb.c and help him fix the bugs that were causing kmtest to fail the FsRtlMcb test. I didn't have a chance to look at it until now, but I felt like this would be a perfect opportunity to get some practice with windbg and get started with serious React OS development.
