Serenity Systems International and Mensys BV are pleased to announce the first public beta of OpenOffice.org 3.1 for eComStation and OS/2.
Paul Smedley has some test builds of UniAud where the HDA code has been updated to ALSA 1.0.11, 1.0.12, 1.0.13, 1.0.14, 1.0.15, and 1.0.16. Note that the current state of HDA support in UniAud 1.1.x is poor, and may be disabled for the 1.1.4 release if these test releases do not produce good enough results.
This is part of the NewsFlash EWWS - issue December 2002.

selected shrink-wraped media and documentation part numbers will be
withdrawn effect 12 March 2003. IBM plans to continue the availability
of OS/2 for purchase with software maintaince through Passport
Advantage for delivery either electronically or CD ROM media-pack.
Q: How much longer does IBM plan to support OS/2? When will IBM withdraw its OS/2 products?

Please see my last month's article for my
experiences with eComStation previews 1, 2 and 3.
eComStation (eCS) is the latest product from Serenity
Systems. eCS is an operating system based on OS/2 technology licensed
from IBM. Users looking to move beyond OS/2 Warp 4 have 3 options:
Here is interview with Samuel Audet, author of PM123.
Filip: When did you start developing PM123 multimedia player?
Why?

time and live forever."

Here's some of the software I'd recommend
to everyone. Take this as a list to make your system the perfect OS/2 system.
Note 1: You'll find very little commercial software
or shareware here because I do believe it should be possible to enhance
OS/2 using freeware only.
