If Atari Germany sold the source to Gemdos, it overstepped the bounds
of its authority.  I believe that we do not have the right to distribute
source code to Gemdos, which is, originally, a DRI product.

You can't get it (legally) in North America.

I urge you not to try, because it will create such chaos.  Atari cannot
be expected to support an OS if everybody with a C compiler can create
his own version.  Please be patient: I'm not kidding when I say the
new GEMDOS will be out soon.  (By "soon" I don't mean "next week."
I mean "sooner than you could get the source, figure it out, make any
useful changes, and debug them to the point that you would trust your
hard disk's file structure to it.")
