I am anticipating a baby, and am busy building a nursery.  After life
settles, I'll resume work on djgpp.

I'm still dreaming of a new go32 (2.0?) that will support more
features and environments than the current go32; I have no fix plans
or designs as of yet.  The current go32 will continue to evolve
through my work and the work of others.  It will never die as long as
people continue using it, although I anticipate that other gcc-to-dos
ports like it will become available for Windows, OS/2, DOS, etc,
anyway.
