--- Comment #4 from Lewis Rosenthal <[email protected]> ---
The Wikipedia article is outdated, though it does mention at the end of the
third paragraph, after the bit about eComStation:

  In 2015 it was announced[4] that a new OEM distribution of OS/2 would be
  released that was to be called ArcaOS.[5]

(Full disclosure: I'm the Managing Member of Arca Noae, LLC.)

The last GA version of eComStation was 2.1, released in 2011. eComStation 2.2
has been stalled at beta 2 since 2013.

Arca Noae has a current license from IBM to sell OS/2 as part of ArcaOS and
ArcaUpdater. ArcaOS 5.0 is slated for release 3/31/2017.

I can understand wanting to remain vendor-neutral, and certainly, IBM's own
OS/2 page is of little help:

http://www-01.ibm.com/software/os/warp-withdrawal/

My point is that if the link is to reference eComStation, then it is correct.
If it is to provide a link to further information about OS/2, then it is not.
If the intention is to link to the "current" maintainer of OS/2, then it should
probably point to Arca Noae.
