Heavybell, 4.0 is such a weird choice. Like, does 6.22 contain code they’re still using? Is there a reason they couldn’t even share the latest version of their decades-obsolete OS?
p03locke, Even if they were, it would be easy to just decompile and figure it out. Even DOS 5.0 would make more sense to open-source.
This is just another argument to revert copyright laws back to 25 years, and give this tech back to the rightful owners: public domain.
