How would that be better than what we already have with FreeDOS? The kernel and "BASE" are already GPL or similar open source, but we still don't get jack squat help from any other free/libre groups. They don't care at all, they're too busy chasing whatever other goals. A free/libre license isn't enough to attract volunteers. > "Surely you JEST!", my friend [are joking]!

Maybe it's still on MSDN, I have no idea. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sponsored by Intel(R) XDK Develop, test and display web and hybrid apps with a single code base.
