I'm rather biased against this port. Instead, we should ask Chris Wohlgemuth if he would implement the missing features in Audio/Data CD Creator and give the money to him.

Additionally, unless it can be ported using odin or something - I would suspect the chances of a port occurring are 0%.

How many opensource win32 apps have been ported to OS/2?

I fully agree. Audio/Data CD creator is very good and integrated so well into the WPS. It sure could be extended by this or that missing feature, but I will certainly not sponsor a competing project to ACDC/2.

I really don't think we can expect much active development of cd audio creator and while I like the wps integration I am not sure it was the right way to go with something like cd audio creator. Would love to see a release made as a stand alone application and with some additional features which it currently lacks. This would eliminate the chance of it hanging the entire wps when it encounters an error. Would also love to see the vx-rexx stuff replaced with something generated by a more recent compiler.
