eComStation is a greatly different operating system for PC (IBM OS/2 Warp)
Applications, news, reviews, support of users, hardware, questions and answers.
But the system includes other versions of drivers and libraries,
system directories structure is different.
so it's necessary verify the compatibility.
If you have old OS/2, let's prepare it for upgrade
(migration to new version).
Step 1-ый: send config.sys from old OS/2 / eCS to eCo Software.
to email: support (at) os2 (dot) guru
file
+ email + name/nickname + model of pc
(so you can remember what computer)
The assistant uility will be free for users.
What way of migration to select?
The system has "migration" mode when new files overwrite old files.
a) some programs are cutted and don't work anymore
b) in any case the users want install the system to fresh hard drive / ssd
Other way - copy directories with the programs.
OS/2 programs don't have migration function so part of programs will not start
after move.
We offer this way:
You install new system to new hard drive.
Migration assistant is collecting information from old disk about installed
software and data for you.
The conference, it's like a flash / flicker. 2 or 3 days and it's over.
In reality, it takes 3-5 monthes, the developers are working,
the speakers are preparing the materials. The organizers are spending efforts.
We are searching for person which can make a report from the conference.

What questions to make to the managers of Arca OS?
What to ask from the developers? What impressions to collect from the users?
Per Arca Noae's revised release schedule, and as announced at Warpstock 2016, Blue Lion (ArcaOS 5.0) moved into beta testing stage today. The first beta release has been made available to the test team, and we anticipate a rigorous round of installation, modifications, formatting, deletion, disk wiping, and all that other fun stuff which accompanies a healthy beta test.
We do not anticipate a public beta cycle nor are we planning a gamma release or an untold number of release candidates. Instead, we fully expect ArcaOS 5.0 to emerge from beta testing at the end of March and to become generally available at that time.
We wish to thank our loyal supporters, our beta testers, and our development team for their dedication to the Blue Lion project, and look forward to the next 60 days as we ready the next release of OS/2.
Pricing will be made available in the near future. Expect two tiers, much like our subscription service (Personal and Commercial), with the latter including prioritized support and a longer bundled maintenance period. Volume discounts will also be available.
