1. General status

   This release is not  intended for production use. Its  goal is to
conclude
   the work being  made on the open-source osFree  project.  The      
released set
   comprises    several    command-line    utilities,  requiring  a  
working
   OS/2-compatible system.

   Many of you may ask what the need for these utilities are. You may
already 
   have a copy of OS/2 Warp and no need for another ansi.exe. The answer
is
   simply opensource. While you own a binary copy of ansi.exe you have not

   rights to the source nor may you spread the copy you have. To build a
new
   OS compatible with OS/2 all tools are needed not just a new kernal.

   The osFree team are activly looking for more developers. If you feel
you
   have the interest in an opensource OS/2 dont hesitate to join.

   It  should be noted   that no component  has  been subjected to 
extensive
   testing  yet, so the components may  only be *deemed* complete because
the
   required functionality is implemented.

   The file (osfree-snapshot.zip) can be found in the incoming directory
at
   hobbes and on several other ftp sites.
