Arkady, Tom rejected *implementing VCPI by himself* as he did not see the personal(!) need for VCPI.
FreeDOS programs can be worked on by multiple people. Tom sometimes improves someone elses program, Eric does the same, and so do you.
The idea of adding VCPI is happily accepted by Tom. He just did not want to implement it by himself. That's his decision.
Luckily, his EMM386/HIMEM programs are opensource, so anyone can contribute (or fork), in theory.
Luckily Michael Devore wanted to implement VCPI himself, whatever his reasons might have been (promoting CauseWay?).
Ho no, I stopped promoting CauseWay over four years ago. Nice to have one less reason for people to bug me for help with it on a particular system like FreeDOS, though. I figured with current trends the last request for help with it will occur around 2015.
Maybe trade in some earned karma points for a stuffed animal, too.
