It is indeed heartening that there are still a lot of developers who
are still actively programming libraries, extensions, add-on packages
for DJGPP; DJGPP as a project is still pretty much alive and kicking!
My friends were looking at me in disbelief when they knew I was still
learning and programming on DOS! DOS is still a great platform to
learn and experiment with low-level programming stuff; 32-bit
protected OSes are going to shield everything and provide an emulation
layer.

For the benefits of all DJGPP users, why don't we inform Delorie of
our libraries so that he can update his links on his
www.delorie.com/djgpp site and other users can also browse the
libraries as well?

In addition, as I've already mentioned, the "Files on other Sites"
page is badly outdated; project sites have either shifted to other
URLs, or projects have been abandoned and shut down. Hope we can have
a nice section like Download.com or Freshmeat.net which categorizes
all the available packages and libraries in an organized manner for
DJGPP users to browse through and to encourage developers to
upload/share their contributions.
