Please excuse this blatant ad, but I wanted to forward this to the
list. I've added a little link button to the www.freedos.org site for
the SourceForge.net 2008 Community Choice Awards. It would be cool to
have FreeDOS recognized in one of the areas, especially these:
"Best Tool/Utility for SysAdmins"
(lots of people use a FreeDOS boot floppy or bootable CDROM to recovery systems)
"Best Project for Educators"
(I know there are many educators who use FreeDOS to teach an intro to
programming or an intro to computing)
"Best Project for Gamers"
(there are lots of good DOS games ... and you can play them on FreeDOS)
or even just "Best Project"
