If he wants to be a maintainer of the EMM386, he could ask and I might have considered sponsoring him to do it, since I'm publicly on record as being done with adding any new features here. New blood is always good, if they have the talent and he does. However, it appears that the entire intent of this scouring of source code and run of changes was to eventually force a conflict by taking offense where none was intended or to refuse a simple request because "it wasn't necessary". Then branch off a new EMM386 the same as HIMEM, and stir up more trouble or to make some dumb point, as has already happened with HIMEM. That's a pretty sad commentary on things. Behavior like this is another reason I'm not terribly interested in continuing as maintainer. But I and the rest of the FreeDOS users do appreciate the actual bugs found along the way. Good job on that. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
