SvarDOS is an open-source project that is meant to integrate the best out of the currently available DOS tools, drivers and games. DOS development has been abandoned by commercial players a long time ago, mostly during early nineties. Nowadays it survives solely through the efforts of hobbyists and retro-enthusiasts, but this is a highly sparse and unorganized ecosystem. SvarDOS aims to collect available DOS software and make it easy to find and install applications using a network-enabled package manager (like apt-get, but for DOS and able to run on a 8086 PC).

    I expect a calm and decent discussion. I don’t like something being called a joke, when people have put hours of work into it. I don’t expect everyone to like a project and criticism can be valid, but there are much better ways to to critisize something.

      Expect as you like. Jokes are, as they are. Not much to be said about Haiku, its a joke.
      Really. Get over yourself.
      Its ok if I don’t like something. I’m not disagreeing with your or criticizing your post. Check Lemvotes. I upvote you.
      I’m a bit bemused by all this fragility displayed, but I’m sure we will all get past it.

        I know you are not disagreeing with me. This is not about me. I already told I couple times my problem is not that do not like something. My problem is they way to express your disliking. Which you are have hard time understanding. I totally fine not liking and you have every right to critique something. But you do not have to be rude about it.
