To stimulate the sellings of eCS software, eCo Shop
offers vouchers to russian users which can write small reviews of
eComStation software.
It's important to generate more screenshots of eComStation to flood
the Internet with the pictures of eComStation desktop.

We delayed the publication of the message:
"Sadly I have come to the decision to close this site effective April 30, 2010. The last five years of providing ports of open source software for OS/2 and eComStation have been a blast, however I feel it's time to move on, so I will be switching all my systems over to linux. Thanks for all the support over the years!! Paul."
(source, there were no remarks that it's a joke during the 1-st april)

Warpstock Europe 2010 is coming
(May 14 to 16, 2010, Trier, Germany)
You are right, the cost of the trip to Trier may be very high for you. 300 EURO.. 500 EURO.. 1000 EURO.. or more.
What is the reason to spend so much money?

The conference is a good chance to
