Hi dos386!

Can you forward details about that dmidecode / bttr forum thing?

>> PS: I would like to quote IBID_AG
>> 4. I would rather see more of the features from 2037 in stable

Ask IBID... country sys support is very useful for SOME languages,
but which other features of 2037 are really hot? :-)

>> & WfW support in stable, these might be handy.

> WtF is WfW ???

Windows for Workgroups 3.11 - quite different from Windows 3.0
and 3.1, because WfW always runs in 386enh mode (unless you call
a sort of minimal safe mode "running"). FreeDOS runs Windows 3
in standard mode easily, but support for 386enh mode is even an
experimental compile-time extension of the experimental 2037
kernel. Pretty unstable, in other words :-).

This is simply the unstable branch of SYS - Udo of course likes
the ability of that SYS to make other operating systems bootable,
in particular EDR DOS :-). But yeah - we should take care with
the version numbers, otherwise we get 2 totally different SYSes
which have the same version number!
