Thanks! I've queued this as an announcement on the website. I really
appreciated the formatting in your announcement; that made it a lot

no problem
It looks like we have very old copies of FDNPKG in the FreeDOS Files
Archive at Ibiblio. Should we be mirroring the new versions too? If
so, can you also share a link to a source zip file in your *next*
announcement? I can start mirroring from that version.

FDNPKG is the original project and is not in development anymore as it
is 32 bit and i made FDNPKG16 a 16 bit port of it's latest code.
i got the FreeDOS package with source (of the program not the libraries
they are found on the repository) available on
http://4ch.mooo.com/freedos/repos/1.4/net/fdnpkg16.zip
Jim i have a question...
should i merge the 2 projects? i made FDNPKG16 distinct as it is my
version of it. To let people know it is a different version of it.
the latest version of FDNPKG is found on source forge
https://sourceforge.net/projects/fdnpkg/files/latest/download
this is where i started on FDNPKG16
also there is a 0.99.8253b version out rn
i did some cleaning to code and comments
