That is interesting! I wonder how long it would have kept going? (My guess: only another minute or two.) You should definitely stay on next time to see when (if?) it kicks you off. BTW, we had a great conversation today, thanks to everyone who joined: Willi, Eric, Jerome, Ralf, Jeremy, Bernd, and Omar. We had some "social time" chat in there too, like learning the MAD programming language, learning assembly, .. but mostly we focused on these technical topics: 1. Willi's HTML Help update. I sent another email to freedos-devel so everyone could see this announcement. I'll also post an announcement on the website. 2. The Book8088 problem. This was an interesting one to me. Bernd reported that there's a bug in XT-IDE where if you check for LBA more than once, it hangs. Folks are working on it. It would be *great* to see follow-up discussion on this topic in freedos-devel. 3. Kernel updates from Jeremy. There are a few updates coming, including Win311 compatibility. Jeremy had planned to make a release of some kind in December, but got delayed. We were all interested in trying out the new kernel in the next Monthly Test Build (T2403). Jeremy plans to share an update on freedos-devel - hopefully soon - even if it's just a "pre-release" version of the kernel. 4. Bernd is planning some fixes to HTML Help. I'll let Bernd share details about that here on freedos-devel. We're planning the next FreeDOS virtual get-together for Sunday, March 10 at the usual time. Unless a technical topic comes up in early March, the next meeting will be "social time." That's a great opportunity to get to know other FreeDOS people as more than just an email address.
