Hi!

As the newer tickets are less in need of a bump, I suggest looking at

https://gitlab.com/groups/FreeDOS/-/issues/?sort=updated_asc&state=opened&first_page_size=100

to ponder in particular the fate of the more than 40 out of 120
currently open issues which got no updates in the last 2 years.

Some could be marked as stale or even closed, others could be updated.

Here are some headlines / summaries in random order...

issue reporting
#9 chkdsk and defrag fail on 286 cpu, format shows wrong free space.
#14 if you have no CD in D: and do D: CD \ C: DIR you get a crash.
#25 installed system, but not installer, supports Norwegian keyboard.
#32 something about getting files in and out of a VM in Ubuntu.
#38 MS DOS xcopy allows xcopy source target/switch (no space before /)
#40 renegate battle for jacob star fails with all tested memory drivers.
#41 problems with bonus cd, ticket is very rudimentary.
#44 just shares experiences and thanks for some boot menu update?
#51 proposal to include wtf, an acronym lookup tool, in the distro.
#56 grand prix circuit and test drive 2 do not work (maybe in fdpp?)
#58 another instance of a ticket asking for WfW 3.11 386enh support.

#2 doom, quake, empong get no USB keyboard input on iMac, UEFI, CSM.

rcal
#1 cannot enter fractional part - apparently fixed by update.

wing
#1 sigsegv or page fault in the game in qemu on game over.

mem
#2 makes assumptions on BDA size instead of measuring it.

shsufdrv

Thanks for looking around :-)
