The original posting was misposted and the original poster knew better !

For newcomers, OS/2 sources should only be posted to comp.sources.misc
and OS/2 binaries should only be posted to comp.binaries.os2 after it
is created.

The moderator of comp.sources.misc has explicitly agreed to take OS/2
sources there.  Sources posted there will be automatically archived at
a number of major sites world-wide, thus making the postings more useful
to everyone.  Also, posting sources here tends to increase the bit-rate
of this newsgroup and several major sites have indicated that if folks
don't stop posting sources and binaries here that they will stop carrying
this newsgroup.

There is a vote underway to create comp.binaries.os2 and I strongly urge
folks to vote Yes.  Even if you don't like binaries, it will keep the
binaries out of this newsgroup and in a place where those who want them
can still find them.  It will also make it easier for archive sites to
keep archive copies around for future users.
