This was a great operating system. Started my CompuServe (GO MAXIS) and Internet journey on it.

I worked at IBM for a while in the 90's and I vaguely remember an email chain going around asking for interested parties to comment on the idea of open sourcing parts of OS/2. I responded enthusiastically, but I think the only thing that made it out was the JFS file system.

I always that the JFS code in Linux came from AIX but it does seem to have come from OS/2
