BBSes run by IBM in Atlanta are not restricted to use by IBM employees.
the number +1-404-835-6600 is a general BBS with DOS and OS/2 conferences
and files; it's where heavy OS/2 discussions take place, including but
not limited to the future of OS/2 and IBM's plans for the relaunch of OS/2.
Much user input from this bbs was used in planning the relaunch - coupons,
lower price...

the number +1-404-835-6381 is a dedicated bbs for donwloading OS/2 2.0beta.
It is not restricted to use by IBM employees.  Unfortunately, it is offline
at the moment while the lawyers from Boca Raton decide if the licensing terms
are acceptable to IBM.

I will follow up when I find out that the d/l bbs is up again.  The sysop is
optimistic.
