While I am anxiously awaiting the release of OpenDOS, my primary interest
is in the other operating Digital Research operating systems.

I keep being asked to design more and more complex embedded systems and am
beginning to use Z180s because I need features like DMA which are not
available in the 68HC11. Some of these things need to acquire data and store
it to a hard disk or flash. These things are just begging for a simple
operating system such as CP/M. Some could really use the multitasking
features of MP/M. Occasionally, we bandy about designs that involve
remote access to the files ala CP/NET.

I know OpenDOS is coming soon. Any idea when these other things might be
made available?
