as you don't have plans to execute MSDOS binaries, please don't advertise your OS as 'DOS', as DOS is understood (here and nearly everywhere else) as 'MSDOS compatible'. also, the list's title is "Technical discussion and questions for FreeDOS developers." which is definitively not your goal. still nothing wrong with writing your own OS.
