Hi guys;

I have been playing with OS-9 Level 2 on VCC, I had given up my COCOs 
several years ago.

And was looking at what it would take to include 4 digit years into 
Level 2 vr 2.00, and found updated source for date,dir,free,setime and 
login CMDS from the old Glenside Y2K project. I thought I could just asm 
these to build a new boot for 4 digit years.

Then I found on the coco archive vr 3.00 beta which already has 4 digit 
years.

I wondered what the changes were from vr 2.00 to vr 3.00 beta?

If there is a final version of it or if this was the last version?

And, if the project was dropped, were the changes included in NitrOS-9?
