Glad to have you back.

0.8e.

Frozen since you last were around, as far as I know.

Fifteen dollars for the PDK CD-ROM (or for the 2.1 beta CD-ROM, for
that matter).  Joining the DAP is free.  Best way to join the DAP is
to type GO OS2DAP on CompuServe.  Best way to order the CD-ROM (in the
U.S.) is to call 800-3-IBM-OS2.

XR06055 base, not sure about C Set/2, not sure about Toolkit, not sure
about Workframe/2, TCP/IP depends on the modules.  All CSDs are
available via anonymous ftp from ftp-os2.nmsu.edu.

The file prgcsd.zip, available via anonymous ftp from ftp-os2.nmsu.edu
(check file /pub/os2/00Index for location) seems to have what you're
after.  It looks like IBM finally got around to doing it.
