Re: [Libcdio-devel] OS/2 patches

[Natalia Portillo]

Hi all,

I have no deep knowledge of the OS/2 API as to be the sole maintainer of it but 
I can set up a virtual machine for testing with any OS/2 or eCS version and 
maybe even real hw.

If you need to maintain the os2 code aside of the mainstream you're welcome to 
use my GitHub fork, as when I get the time the osx patches may require changes 
to the inner libcdio workings that will make merging slow and painful xD

I'm not always on mail but any help you need from me just drop a direct message.

Regards
