Forgive me, after a little searching I discovered that the reference I was
refering to is in fact in the FAQ, Section 3.6. Is Eli still the FAQ
mantainer?

I believe this section should be changed to reflect the fact that RSXNTDJ is
a dead project, and should not encourage it's use. Perhaps a deletion up to
the part mentioning Cygwin and mingw32 as alternatives is in order.

I'm amazed at the sheer number of people that either a) used my howto at
some stage or another or b) contacted me regarding its whereabouts after it
was taken down. The fact that I was 13 when I wrote it is proof that young
programmers can have some impact on the programming community. Anyway,
enough young-programmer propaganda, I'm just feeling a little sentimental
about my name being removed from the DJGPP FAQ ;-)

Cheers
Johan
