I am still in the testing phase at the moment but, thinking positive and
looking to the future, will ACT continue to update the sources, makefiles
etc so that private OS/2 builds will still be possible?

I don't like the idea of multiple source distributions floating around and
also I don't have the time to be the OS/2 maintainer, although I am happy to
build them now and then so long as the time required does not escalate.

Dave.
