Subject:  [VOICENWS] SW: Larsen Commander for OS/2 now released as GPL Open Source

++ From the VOICE OS/2-eCS News Service   http://www.os2voice.org ++

From: Leif Erik Larsen <leifelDESPAM at DESPAMonline.no>

Larsen Commander for OS/2 is now released as Open Source under the GPL (GNU 
General Public License - http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.txt ).

The code base is exactly the same as that in the most recent public 
milestone release (v1.6 Milestone #3), except Leif Erik Larsen has adjusted 
it for the GPL copyright and stripped out all Windows specific parts of the 
code.

You can get more information and download the OS/2 source from 
http://home.online.no/%7Eleifel/lcmd/index.html or from Source Forge at 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/lcmd where you also can browse the source 
directly via http://lcmd.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/lcmd/

The Windows version of Larsen Commander is not released as Open Source by 
now. Leif Erik Larsen will continue to develop Larsen Commander for 
Windows. His plan is to port the current Windows code form C++ to C# on 
..NET. Larsen Commander will then be available for both Windows, Linux and 
Mac, and maybe also a .NET version for OS/2 if someone manage to port some 
valid .NET runtime (such as Mono - see http://www.mono-project.com) to our 
favorite OS. Only the time will show.

Anyway, the OS/2 version of Larsen Commander is now available as Open 
Source, and anyone interested might participate in the further development 
of it. Please contact Leif Erik Larsen via mail ( 
leifelDESPAM at DESPAMonline.no ) or web 
(http://home.online.no/%7Eleifel/lcmd/index.html) if you are interested in 
contributing.
