I'm sure a lot of you have seen this on Hacker News, etc:
"Re-open sourcing MS-DOS 1.25 and 2.0";
https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/commandline/2018/09/28/re-open-sourcing-ms-dos-1-25-and-2-0/
Originally it was released to the computer history museum with a
restrictive license.
Now, it has been released to github: https://github.com/Microsoft/MS-DOS
Under an MIT (OSI) License.
An issue was opened asking for clarification on the license -it'll be
interesting to see what comes of it;
https://github.com/Microsoft/MS-DOS/issues/2
I'm not sure this has any value for FreeDOS beyond experimenting (can
this be built by the VAL linker? seems doubtful) and possibly getting
some ideas (something verboten under the originally released license).
