The Mailinglist archive for the Sibyl (=Delphi clone) OS/2 Rapid Application Development application has moved.

OS/2 - MDOS Games Site moved (temporarily?!) (from Martin Kiewitz)
Because I could not update the MDOS-part of the website on OS/2-World.com for about 2 weeks now, I decided to move the site (temporarily?!) onto my own server. It features a list of working games under OS/2 / eCS's VDM including patches, if required. It's now also including up-to-date information about the patches, that I'm working on.

VOICE Newsletter potential new feature (from M. Dodel)
We would like to add a new page to the VOICE Newsletter to allow small Freeware and OS/2 user advertisements. This has been delayed a bit do to our involvement with Warpstock. Hopefully we can have something together for December. But we need your help.
This new page would allow developers of freeware apps to advertise their products by having a free banner/text ad on this page. Also OS/2-eCS users and OS/2 user groups could place text ads seeking other OS/2-eCS users in their geographical area to start/promote a user group or maybe just find someone to help them with a support problem or have coffee with. So let us know if you think this is a good idea. If you would like to place an advertisement send it to ads@os2voice.org . If you would just like to comment, please send email to feedback@os2voice.org. As with most everything at VOICE, these ads are free, supported by the members who have joined VOICE.
We have also revised our sponsorship levels to make it more affordable to sponsor VOICE, and have banner ads on some pages of the Newsletter for shareware and commercial OS/2 developers. You can view the status of that on our Sponsorship page - http://www.os2voice.org/sponsorinfo.html.

Jakesplace Ultimate OS/2 News Feed (from Jack Troughton)
The Ultimate OS/2 Newsfeed at Jakesplace has added two new newsfeeds!
I've added the Sundial news groups to the newsfeed at jakesplace. Sundial Systems are the developers of such fine OS/2 software packages as Mesa, Clearlook, Relish, DBExpert, Junkspy, etc. I'm now carrying all their groups.
I've also added the recently revived OS/2 related newsgroups at IBM's news server, news.software.ibm.com.
Jakesplace is now carrying feeds from usenet, ecomstation.nl, IBM's java news server, IBM's general news server, Scitech/Openwatcom, Mozilla.org, and Sundial, for a total of 88 newsgroups.
If you're running a private OS/2 related news server and would like to have your groups added to the Jakesplace Ultimate OS/2 Newsfeed, feel free to contact me at jake@jakesplace.dhs.org.
News server policy may be found in the newsgroup jakesplace.announce. Any comments or requests regarding policy may be discussed in jakesplace.discussion.
To access the server, just point your newsreader at jakesplace.dhs.org. (news://jakesplace.dhs.org for all you netscape fans out there;).

Slashdot.org: Where Have the OS/2 Junkies Gone? (from Timur Tabi)
Looks like it's time to re-educate some more Linux users again. There's an article on Slashdot that asks where all the "OS/2 junkies" have gone. You don't need an account to reply - just talk about how you're using OS/2 today. Don't forget to mention eComStation and the Convenience Packs.

OS/2 Groups a live again on IBM News Server (from madodel@ptdprolog.net)
There are several OS/2 focused news groups reactivated on IBM's public NEWS server recently:
  • News server is news.software.ibm.com
  • Groups:
    • ibm.software.os2.lan
    • ibm.software.os2.misc
    • ibm.software.os2.rexx
    • ibm.software.os2.warp
    • ibm.networking.tcpip.os2
So before IBM decides to shut them down for lack of use (and lack of promotion) let's show IBM there are still some OS/2 users out there who appreciate information forums devoted to OS/2.
