I suppose we could consider hitching our wagon to the freedos people instead of a unix based kernel I suppose.
It would be closer to the true os/2 under the hood but it would require a lot more coding as far as creating a whole new gui, and all of the apps.
We would have to start from ground zero in that direction but it's better then holding on to a dead path.
Maybe there would be some way of using the x-server gui source code and getting it to run on a dos based system so we could use at least some of the linux development work?
I was recommending a linux/unix core since it would require a lot less work.
On the other hand people would be very intrigued by it and I could see getting a lot of people joining our flag with that move
