I don't know. Don't remember.

Past tense. I *used* to keep it. Since no-one really used it, I
stopped maintaining it. The page counter went up to about 60 or
so months ago, and then stayed there. I deleted the stuff a
couple months ago (when the source releases were cancelled)

Perhaps. I resign as WL maintainer though. ;o)
Due to things happening in the Linux community:
GGI, DirectX, ActiveX, emulators, DOSemu, Wine/willows, the new
kernels features, new sound drivers for AWE cards, and countless
other projects...
Not to mention that crack.com just made a deal with RedHat
software to be a Linux game supplier (go to www.redhat.com for
details), and the million other things happening in the Linux
arena... I've decided to start phasing out all of my DOS
activities. I still use it, and will for quite some time, but I
don't see it going in the direction that I did 6 months ago. Now
I see Linux going much further than I could have dreamed.
I cant wait until linux 2.2 comes out (or will it be 3.0???)
Take care yeep.
