I have given a few talks about the history of FreeDOS, and these have been very well received. Based on the "retro computing" track at this year's FOSDEM, I think if someone wants to do a similar talk about FreeDOS at FOSDEM, it would also be well received. If this is something that interests you, feel free to re-use or re-purpose the slides I used at Kieler. You can find them at http://www.freedos.org/jhall/kieler/ You can also find additional material, including history and screenshots - in our FreeDOS Press Kit: http://www.freedos.org/press-kit.zip If anyone would like help putting together such a presentation, I'd be happy to help you via email.
