IDEDASD update
Hi All
There is a new version of the idedasd package here:-
http://service.software.ibm.com/os2dd/free/idedasd.exe
This includes os2cdrom.dmd build 10.127 which seems to have cured a few
problems for a few people.

Calmira.net domain Update
[Moderator note: Regarding the recent VOICE News list post on Calmira (a
win 3.1 shell that works in win-OS/2) and its new URL: http://www.calmira.net/]
Before downloading, I followed this link and found out some important news
on their home page.
The owners report that the Camira domain name was hijacked and the authors
have requested everybody to update their links to the new domain.

A note regarding calmira.org
Recently, the calmira.org domain expired and has been hijacked by a domain
harvester. This despite our efforts to register the domain when it
expired. While concidered, filing a complaint with ICANN would most likely
not succeed, since Calmira is not a registered trademark.
There are still many pages linking to calmira.org. We ask that all links
to calmira.org be removed from your page and update them to our new
domain: calmira.net. Please do not give these hijackers the satisfaction
of making money on our name."
Happy new year!
Icelandic eCS & OS/2 pages back up
The Icelandic OS/2 pages are currently being resurrected.
All the old stuff will be uploaded there once it has been updated, at the
moment there is only basic eCS and OS/2 info along with limited
programming information and links but that will change once I have sorted
out what information is still pertinent and what is not.
The English language stuff that use to reside on Hel.is and olafur.net
many moons ago will also be put there after a I have sorted out the crap
from the gems or vize versa. This sadly excludes the section on the use of
PPWIZARD in multi-language setups since the PPWIZARD author, Mr. Bareis
has made it clear that his software is only for use with English hence
pointless to spend any time on updating that part.
