In 1994, several of us got together around a pretty neat idea.

We liked DOS, but Microsoft was clearly moving completely to Windows. "The
next version of Windows," they said, "would do away with DOS."

We wanted to keep DOS around, so we decided to write our own. That project,
announced 29 years ago TODAY on June 29 1994, was the FreeDOS Project.

Thanks to EVERYONE who is (or has been) part of FreeDOS! 29 years is a long
time for any open source project, and I'm looking forward to more years to
come.
