We're still working on that telepathic user interface and all those
things we've dreamed Microsoft put into MS-DOS. I'm still working on
everything I have sent in, but it would be nice if I got some direction
on things that can be improved.

I'm sure we'll want to discuss "1.4" or "2.0" or whatever version
comes after 1.3. (I can start a new conversation next week to talk
about that.)
Now that FreeDOS 1.3 has been out for a little while, I wanted to
start thinking about what comes next. Let's use this thread to discuss
it.
What would you like to see changed or added (or removed) in the next
distribution?
* Merge the kernel, FreeCOM as well as all the base utilities that
haven't been updated in years (abandoned?) in one single repository with
one single build system to lower the barrier to entry for newcomers to
improve FreeDOS. Added bonus down the line, it may then be possible to
directly generate various floppy images like ELKS does and have a
stripped down build with binaries suitable for XTs.
* In my testing, jemm386 isn't a compatible replacement for emm386.
Most games that require EMS I've tried just crash while they work
fine with PC-DOS and friends. It's also the last piece of the puzzle
that prevents Windows 3.x from working in FreeDOS. Seems like solving
these problems would be a major achievement.
