EDM/2 is the premier site to find OS/2 and eComStation software development information.
Here are some news about the site on the last month.
Non-EDM/2 Republished Articles
There are several OS/2 and eComStation programming articles floating around. When the authors authorize to republish their articles under the Creative Commons license, it can be included on the wiki and the most important thing of all, there are clear rules to create derivative works.

EDM/2 Republished Articles
Since we are changing to a Wiki format, republishing permission allowing derivative work for the articles has to be requested. There had been good response from part of the Authors that I was able to contact. Several authors (all that I was able to contact) accepted that his articles were republished under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 license to me migrated to wiki site.
The old EDM/2 articles that were re-published are:

Extra updates
Also lately updated:
- There was a little makeover on the The OS/2 API Project. There was an re-organization on this page, but we still lack a lot of content.
I want to thank all the authors that allowed their articles and documentation to be published on the EDM/2 wiki.
