FYI:
Looks like Slashdot posted an item about FreeDOS a little while ago.

http://yro.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=05/10/24/1353218&tid=117&tid=17


Summary (from FreeDOS.org):

It has come to our attention that DRDOS 8.1 includes several programs from the FreeDOS Project. While normally it is okay for commercial software projects to include FreeDOS software, please note that you must follow the terms of the GNU GPL under which the FreeDOS software was licensed. Specifically, this concerns FreeDOS SYS 2.6 and FreeDOS FDXXMS version 0.82. These are provided in binary form only without source code provided. DRDOS does not include a copy of the GNU GPL for these 2 programs, nor does it state that the GNU GPL applies to these 2 programs. In addition, source code for SYS & FDXXMS is not included, nor is a written offer made to provide source code upon request. We are trying to work with DRDOS, but have not received a reply yet.
