my merge work and release a new stable kernel and see read the rest of
this request.

To be fair I found Eric's email rather demanding. In general if you want things to happen in the NEAR future you either have to do it yourself or pay big bucks, not just pizza money. Certainly when the kernel doesn't have a real maintainer (just an interim one who does what he can when he has time).

Personally I find it rather questionable that an unstable CVS snapshot is used for the official FreeDOS distribution, but that's just me, I would just stick with the latest official kernel version, with perhaps a few custom patches for important bug fixes, unless the (interim) maintainer has blessed the CVS as fit for general (non-developer) use.

Or perhaps I'm missing something obvious, I only take a half eye on FreeDOS these days.
