Sorry, I was wrong.

I did not put the “other” “unofficial” build of FreeCOM into the GitLab Archive.

It was something I tested locally to see if some of the bugs reported locally.

Not being an official test version, the build I was able to acquired was not 
placed in the unstable branch for general testing. Because it was not an 
official test build, I think that actually makes sense to me. I do not know why 
I though I had uploaded it.

So, like the kernel. The version of FreeCOM in the GitLab Archive unstable 
branch (and on the Interim Test Builds) was the same as the one provided in 
FreeDOS 1.3. 

I realized this while I was going through and merging the different projects 
that have unstable branches into their master branches. 

I apologize for my error.

:-)

Jerome
