" As of January 1st, 2004 updates to the OS/2 Device Driver Kit
have been discontinued.

I copied this from the site. If one needs the files, it would be good
if they were copied before they are gone.

A very interesting project. It would be neat if it
was based on OS/2(?). It is an open source project.

Looks very fascinating. And it's open source. A possibility for an
OS/2 replacement???

If you mean an OS/2 kernel replacement, we can take
advantage of it. An OS/2 replacement, specifically one
entirely in the open source arena, is a much larger challenge.
Here we simply make a choice whether we wish to particpate
or not.

It would be neat if it was based on an open sourced version of OS/2
which we can
download.

Perhaps something that could be used in/with OSFree?

Both sites come up okay. Did you try 'copy and paste'?

Of course....

Given the number of groups I'm on (30+) and the sheer volume of spam,
I thought little of not getting a site to come up - plenty of people
set up "warez" sites that get shut down or rapidly hit their bandwidth
limit.

It's a problem with Netscape 4.78 (or in reality - the site's
administrator).

I frequently hit sites that will NOT come up in Netscape, as the
administrators feel that you must use all the bells and whistles and
the latest (preferably Intenet Exploder) browsers...

This is one.
