What you don't see is that I have to deal with a number of administrative requests each week (usually about one a day) where a virus has been sent to the FreeDOS lists, and it's over the 40kb limit. Yes, a few viruses/spams make it to the list because they are smaller than 40kb, but trust me - it's _much_ fewer than the ones I have to deal with on the administrative requests page. So increasing the limit beyond 40kb to allow larger patches to be submitted would also increase the number of spams/viruses that make it onto the list. And I don't think anyone wants that. :-)

In fact, I am surprised that 40Kb is enough. I daily pick in this account 20-50 viruses having invariably either around 170Kb or arount 32Kb (<40Kb). Trey all have randomly the addresses of other FreeDOS developers, so the virus must come from somewhere that has been in touch with FreeDOS at some point.
