FreeDOS is whatever they can find that seems to be dos-ish.
Many of the external 'command' binaries weren't actually
written to be a part of _any_ DOS but the authors decided to
'donate' them to the project. 

JB> I've never heard of an "opendos project" 

This is a bit nit-picky isn't it? OK, let me put it this way.
The source code was available for OpenDOS and, at one time,
people were tweaking it and sharing their changes. Now that
there is FreeDOS people seem to be tweaking FreeDOS code and
sharing _that_. I don't know of any group actively tweaking
OpenDOS. Better?
