Well, that is a little bit of an exaggeration :) FreeDOS has died if people 
stop being interested in it, and with DosBox etc. as alternatives we are short 
of being at this point. We can ensure reaching it by lifting the entry barriers 
so high that none of the young people bother dealing with FreeDOS any more.

You have valid points in pointing out that video lessons are perhaps not the 
best learning format for coding, but they definitely catch more interest than a 
five page article. No one requests throwing away the available documentation 
and replace them by videos. But they are a valid way of introducing people to 
topics they are generally interested in. If they want more information, they 
will search for them and probably find them in form of articles or books.

You have problems calling it „developer videos“, fine, lets find some other 
name for it… 

Greetings, Bernd
