Based on Adrian his posting I posted this:

http://blog.netlabs.org/?p=199

      Mensys and Serenity Systems would like to thank Netlabs for the years of close cooperation and supporting the eComStation project. For years we have know that the things we can do for ComStation are limited in the sense that we don't the human and financial resources that IBM invested into eComStation. Also some technical limitations
      apply.

      At Warpstock 2008 in Dusseldorf I (Roderick Klein) mentioned that after years there is a sudden spike in the amount of support calls we are getting from companies. Its primarily from the United States. IBM canceled OS/2 support in United States around 2002/2003. Now 6 years later we are getting a lot
      of support calls from companies needing eComStation.

      In conjunction with the OS/2 eCS community Mensys/Serenity Systems continues to invest money in eComStation. As Flash 10 will soon come
      out in a public beta. Togheter with other groups we will soon provide via OS/2 VOICE additional funding for CUPS (printer driver support).

      Also the DANIS506.ADD driver we will continue to develop it. Right now the driver supports SATA and PATA controllers. Right now research is being done by a developer to get AHCI support on eComStation. The follow up of the SATA standard which is slowly coming in new machines. This will be for the release of eComStation past eComStation 2.0. There will be a day that OS/2 can no longer run by itself. But so far we also have a demand from some
      companies to run OS/2 on native hardware because of certain hardware access that is needed.

Hi Roderick,

I have passed your guys name (Serenity Systems, eComStation and Mensys) on to a VERY BIG company in the US that has a BIG OS/2 install (did so last October, and again 2 months ago). I am hoping they too have contacted you for continued support. They are located in Dallas, TX, USA. Please feel free to PM me if you want more information (cannot post it in the open forum). And feel free to recommend they use my services as well. ;)

From my more recent conversations, it seems they are considering maintaining many of their OS/2 installs a bit longer - instead of migrating them (which was their Oct 2008 plan) - so hopefully my conversations with them assisted in pushing them in that direction.

Best,
Robert
