Subject: Suggestion: change bundled OpenDOS networking
Mime-Version: 1.0

Dump Personal NetWare, and include some
port of NFS and LPD.  I think enough
source code is out there to make it
reasonably easy to accomplish.  And I
think the result would be much better:
there are far more machines out there that
are ready to do NFS and LPD than will do
Personal NetWare.  This also would dramatically
increase the ease of interoperability between
OpenDOS and Caldera desktops.  I'd dearly
love to run OpenDOS and OpenDOS/Win3.11
and OpenDOS/Java clients with Caldera
servers with no IPX involved at all.

It seems to me that men usually think more about carburetors, and women
think more about doors.  I think the world needs really good carburetors...and
really good doors.
