More than 55 of the NLS updates are from me - and NO real updates. I simply checked the original NLS versions and added an UTF-8 file to the german cp850/858 file as it was already done in French and Turkish.
I am not sure if my and Berkis UTF-8 files should be in this FreeDOS version, they are only made to documentate how the text should look like in modern OSes - to avoid misunderstandings with bad/wrong created Codepages.

I think folks may have missed that there's a changelog in the Interim
Test Build directory:

Interim Test Build from FreeDOS 1.3 are NLS updates, plus some version
updates of other packages like dojs, jemm, gopherus, and a few others.
For example, if I wanted to test internationalization in FreeDOS, I
would know to download this Interim Test Build.
