Hello! I'm going to remove the remains of the OS/2 port of GNU Midnight Commander from the current sources. The reasons are:
1) OS/2 has lost most of it's userbase. This is sad, but please blame IBM, not me. 2) There are at least two nc-like filemanagers for OS/2 - File Commander/2 (http://silk.apana.org.au/fc.html) and OS/2 Commander (http://www.reinfeld.de/os2com/), both shareware. I don't think that the remaining OS/2 users care about licence too much. 3) It should be possible to compile MC with EMX using standard sources and build process (configure; make) - like the Cygwin port. 4) There are people who want to revive the Win32 port of MC and the OS/2 port stands in the way because they share a lot of code. Leaving the OS/2 code without keeping it in-sync with the Win32-specific changes would mean making it dead code that will never be used. If anybody wants to work on the OS/2 port (I mean fixing the problems, not just testing) please speak out now. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ Mc-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc-devel
