Ask a question
Most of the FreeDOS developers communicate with each other using email lists. Sending an email to the list reaches everyone on the list so anyone can help out. Our email lists are typically low volume, so not likely to fill up your inbox. We have only a few rules about the email lists.
For developers
Interested in writing programs for FreeDOS? Freedos-devel is the right place to ask questions about programming, debugging, and maintaining programs.
