[Politics]

ArcaOS, eComStation, OS/2 - commercial

The development of OS/2 was performed by commercial companies. money is the fuel. the goal - to earn money.

eComStation: Significant part of money was coming from the sponsors.

On the other side: major part of new OS/2 applications are based on open-source modules.

"One man, no man"

Building an Operating System - it's a huge project. it's like building a real City (build houses, dig flowers garden, etc). Thousands of people are going this in the city.

Conclusion: Standalone developer is unable to create something. Always join a group, interact with other developers. Moreover, interace with all other "characters" (managers, resellers, Active users, ..)
