Ah, but the thing is they've all _been_ retired, as of 6-12 months ago;
it's not like we've just decided to retire them now.
At the suggestion of one of our OS/2 users we've sent a "heads up" to
the makers of eComStation to see if they're interested in working with
us to keep Xitami binaries available for OS/2. We'll see what comes of
that.
Meanwhile Xitami should build with gcc + EMX under OS/2 for anyone who
is interested in doing so.
And if we can find a spare machine and some spare time (!!) we'll try to
get an OS/2 build machine set up again. Alas, spare time is in short
supply...
