Just wanted to let everyone know that I've decided to pursue a Master's degree (M.S. - MOT). This will require a considerable time commitment from me, for the next two years. In order to concentrate on the course, I'll need to take a leave of absence from the FreeDOS Project starting in May.
I know FreeDOS will be fine during my absence. We have the FreeDOS Wiki to help manage our user-contributed documentation. Bug tracking has moved from bugzilla to the SF Bug Tracker. I'm not the only person with access to the FreeDOS files archive at ibiblio, nor the only person who can edit the www.freedos.org web site.
I'm sure others will be able to fill in for me while I'm gone, so my absence isn't really that critical.

About Me
- Jim Hall
- I'm Jim Hall, the founder and Project Coordinator for the FreeDOS Project. I started FreeDOS in 1994, when I was an undergraduate physics student at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls. Other developers got in touch with me, and we began work creating our own version of DOS that would be compatible with MS-DOS. I shared the extended DOS utilities that I had written for myself, as did others. We also found public domain or open source programs that replaced other DOS commands. A few months later, we released our first FreeDOS “Alpha” distribution. And from there, FreeDOS grew into what you see today!
