Hello Wengier,

I am quite happy with what I have. It is a pity the vdosplus.org site is not online. Your work had many merits, and deserves to be properly presented online. It is unfortunate that a solution both you and Jos could live with has not been found. I do not know exactly what has happened behind the scenes, and there is no need to discuss it here. But the current situation is not ideal from the standpoint of those who have greatly benefited from vDosPlus development like the members of this list. Jos' nag screen concerned only a few of us, and was a very marginal issue for most of us anyway in terms of cost and/or principle. While open source and free software is nice, most of us resort to some commercial programs, and a happy developer who makes some money from his efforts is better than no developer at all. And some version of vDosPlus is much better than no version at all.

Long live vDosPlus!

Best regards,
