# Some version someplace had all the updates, but I honestly don't remember

If it's lost, I believe I have the binary here.  (But I'm fairly sure I
never found source.)

# The r5 update was supposed to be a temporary fix while r6 was released.
# Primarily driven by Symantec for inclusion in Ghost DOS images.
# There were some compatibility issues with r6, which never were resolved,
# so it never was finalized.  At some point people quit bugging me about it
# so I quit working on it.

FWIW I've successfully used R6 with our project here, which uses some
fairly gnarly physical-memory access stuff (you sent some code to Sean
Dykstra at Maxtor about five years ago).

There was also some interest here in trying to pick up some development
on CWSDPMI, and adding some of the DPMI 1.0 features (they'd be useful to
the project we're on).
