Okay, I took a dozen of minutes to get such list. Here it is: :-)

These BASE packages are *missing* from the fdupdate repository:

versions):

These BASE packages are *newer* on fdupdate than on freedos.org (therefore it 
would be nice to update the listing on freedos.org...):

GPL2


That's all!
So, we still need to repackage 21 packages to get the minimal BASE 
functionality. When that would be done, it would be nice to have FDPKG patched 
to support "new style" FD packages (that is source+bin in one file). Then, I 
could hopefully release my latest FDUPDATE package, which I prepared for 
FreeDOS v1.1 few months ago... Then, we would need an installer (maybe the one 
from v1.0 would do the job, dunno). And finally, we could push out FreeDOS 
v1.1. :-)
