Yes, but also more publicity. People see only version 2.03 at the web  
page, I don't think that many people know about a very stable 2.04pre and  
about the features of this version (not only that it is "compatible" with  
Windows). If one looks at delorie.com/djgpp it looks like a dead project -  
and this shouldn't. And I don't think that adding webpages to CVS is  
really a step forward. There are 2 compilers today which activly support  
DOS ... OpenWatcom and CC386. But f.e. if you want to compile a Linux  
program in DOS, DJGPP is the best thing, so I think little afford would  
bring life into DJGPP... Compatiblity with Windows (2.04pre) and support  
of ELF would be a big feature.

Bye
