      As far as I know, the OS/2 port 'died' when Peter sold IM to Dale.
Peter (and Michelle) and I did have long discussions on concept of the
porting of IM 2.5 to OS/2, and there was a programmer who agreed to do it,
who had signed a non- disclosure agreement regarding the source, and who
was willing to do it for something like $10US per sold copy. I'm sorry, but
I never knew the actual name of the programmer, or if I did, it's long
forgotten, and I'm not sure if he ever actually had his hands on the
source. When Dale discussed the matter with me shortly after he and I got
together, I found that he had a _very_ hard time accepting that there was a
reasonably large OS/2 following in Fidonet, and that development of OS/2
projects would be worthwhile.  (Unfortunately, the windoze crowd can be
almost too vocal, drowning out the rest of us)
