This is an important one for UBCD: FreeDOS 1.2 was just released.

Before thinking of updating fdubcd too, it needs to be tested, a lot, especially considering the changes / updates / deprecations of memory managers, drivers (e.g. for optical media, for USB) and the like, and the variety of CSM implementations in UEFI.

Noted, though the changes seem to be restricted to the kernel and USB driver:
