I think only Jerome has the permissions to create the repository under the 
Gitlab FreeDOS organisation. So first step would be that he creates the repo 
and assigns some permissions to us.

For simplicity I suggest that we will push directly to this repo instead of 
everyone forking it and creating somewhat labour intensive merge requests.

For some packages, there is an unstable branch. I recommend to also use this 
for checking in documentation. We can then transfer articles we are satisfied 
with to the main branch, which can then be converted to HTML by a workflow and 
put somewhere on a HTTP server.

For the start I would like to write some guides how to cross-compile to the DOS 
target from different operating systems and compilers. Documentation for the 
latest tools (GCC-IA16, OpenWatcom v2 on Mac, Linux) seems to be a little 
sparse.
