What to port to OS/2?
The topic of porting (import) was discussed since 2008, 2010.
1) It's clear that OS/2 receives new software thanks to porting of linux software.
2) YES, we need libraries (dlls), VIO (text mode) applications = engines, code with complex algorithms inside.
3) NO, it's necessary prohibit porting of large ready-for-use apps which
This medium size and large apps are debugged, powerful and easily
kill our OS/2 native, shareware apps (= kill OS/2 developers).

"One man, no man"Building an Operating System - it's a huge project. it's like building a real City (build houses, dig flowers garden, etc). Thousands of people are going this in the city.
Conclusion: Standalone developer is unable to create something.
Always join a group, interact with other developers.
Moreover, interace with all other "characters" (managers, resellers, Active users, ..)
