There's not enough developers to go around. The few they do have are just extremely busy (no surprise, smarter you are the harder you work). Don't take it personally.

That's not true, that's a bit of an overgeneralization. I mean, I don't know what you experienced, and I'm not defending everything under the sun, just saying ... many FreeDOS contributors have been extremely polite and helpful to me. In fact, I can't think of anything that offended me so horribly. To be honest, I almost (but not really) would prefer that specific people were called out on this rather than FreeDOS as a whole. But that's heavily counter-productive too. (Please don't, it's just my lame instinct.) Nobody's perfect. Volunteers welcome! GPL! Fork it! Hack it! Fix it! Play with it! Share it! ;-)
