I've heard that Novell/Caldera had lost all the DR DOS sources previous
to release 6.0 (including the DR DOS 5.0 ones) Is that true ?

There's a project to enhance the open source
version to feature
parity
and more, the DR-DOS Enhancement Project.

The management of Lineo set up a new company, DeviceLogic. They're
offering DR-DOS 8 now.

The bummer is, I've got a CD with the full sources and build chain
for
OpenDOS 7.01 - but can't release it. I got it when Roger Gross and I
thought that Caldera was going to go the whole route and open source
it
all. That was back in '96. At least I got 'em to release GEM and
related software. :)
