I almost also said "or Steve" because I do consider your opinion important. If Jim (and/or Eric) agrees, then the description of "freedos-devel" needs to be clarified. "Are you interested in writing programs for FreeDOS? Freedos-devel is for developers, developers, developers!" (Certainly that reference is to Ballmer and Windows, where development of the OS itself is off-limits except to certain MS employees. So the call for more developers there almost certainly means userland stuff. Granted, even then, Tom could prefer talking about bundled OS utils like "FIND" or "DEBUG" rather than third-party stuff like "FORTUNE".) Because it was far from obvious, to me, that this list was ever meant to be so narrow in focus. To me, "development" is for everything involving code, compilers, etc. (as long as indirectly related to DOS, of course). It's not like we have that many posters, so I don't know why Tom is so overwhelmed! _______________________________________________ Freedos-devel mailing list Freedos-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel
