Snippet from Eric Auer:

OS/2 was a very sensible evolution of the MS DOS

And there are probably free open OS/2 clones :-)

There is a free open OS/2 clone-attempt at osfree.org .

They even now have a github site:

https://github.com/ErisBlastar/osfree

Development proceeds at a crawl.

Too little and too late for me; FreeBSD, NetBSD and Haiku are more interesting, 
not to mention Linux.

Eric mentioned OS/Free in a private mail to me. I was aware of it, but ignored it since from all signs I'd seen it was on the ground and still for years.

I did mention 2ine, which is an OS/2 API emulator for Linux - perhaps overlaying 2ine on a 32-bit-native DOS clone would be of actual use to some people.
