I received mail from Bryce at DeviceLogics several days ago.  He told me
that the version of DR-DOS 8.0, available now, was done to satisfy OEM
requests.  Apparently, the OEM partners were willing to accept the operating
system 'as is'.  Bryce also wrote that DR-DOS 8.0 will not be available to
end-users until it has completed the test stage.
