 Dear All!
I was just working on my thesis about the correct use of NuMega SoftICE in benefit of the humanity when I received a secret report informing me about a new OS/2 Client absolutely free!!!

 Yeahhh, man, I'm not joking, I swear by the barb of Mentor: brazilian users are working quietly in a secret project - a new OS/2 Client with a new name, perhaps FreeOS.
 Brazil is a country where OS/2 have many adepts and the principal users groups are located in São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Rio Grande Sul and Espirito Santo states.
For long time Brazil have a decent support online for OS/2 Warp, with a BBS and complete support help absolutely free, by telephone! One of the biggest brazilian banks, called Banco do Brasil, purchased thousands of licenses of OS/2 Warp and this platform is running just fine in all Banco do Brasil's agencies.
 Unfortunately IBM in the last year was closed the support online, located in São Paulo city, capital of São Paulo state and OS/2 is orphaned in Brazil. For long months the brazilian users - all registered users - was expected for a new OS/2 Client but IBM really is not interested in SOHO users. Last month, a group decided make a new operating system, like OS/2, based in the OS/2 code.
Some users of the Fudeba Group of MSX are just projecting the architecture of this new "OS/2 Client" - note that it's not a OS/2 warez with remake code incorporating the new fixes but a really new free operating system, inspired in OS/2 architecture.
At this time other group is just discussing in a brazilian mailing list several enhancements for the new OS and some commands as deltree was compiled and are just in test. The primary goal of this group is just to add on this new OS a full collection of improved commands for prompt, as the popular 4DOS commands line.
Another group of brazilian users are also analyzing the possibility of a symbiosis on the OS/2 kernel, merging it.
At the moment it is all. When I have more news I will return to the theme.

PS: Sincerely, All, don't forget to jump Phrozen Crew web site in order to vote in the graphic contest and vote for Da Vinci! There are a  nice link on my main-page!

PS1: Don't are scared with my delay in start my domain in my new server. The problem is I am fucked by this fucked Internic once again. Last June I reported Internic's irregularities and  per coincidence this fucked enterprise was nuked by hackers. Now, Internic is practicing his revenge just on a decent man like me!!! Since October 22 we are requesting the host update and have not any providence!
