Hi BigWarpGuy,

I can't speak about it because I'm not involved in the FreePM project.

BTW, as far as I know it is stalled.

We have other (higher) priorities BTW at the moment. What we should achieve first is a working text-mode
OS, which means completing all the subsystems and the kernel. Next, we can start building a PM replacement
(or choose one of the many available open source GUI systems, provided they provide the necessary functionality).

Bye

I agree, first the os then the graphics.

Has there been any work on the presentation manager or is there still alot to do with the kernel
before ones start working on the pm again?

The age old problem; so much to do yet so little time to do it.

To be honest, it would be a dream work to do this project and be paid for it. Am I too nerd?...

I guess so

That would be neat, get paid to program for OS/2-OSFree.

I am still learning programming so I envy you in what you are doing (even if it is not as often as you hope).
