When comparing Windows-3.11-DOSBox and dosbox-staging you can also consider the following projects: Both have a much faster development and release cycle, and are much more welcoming to new contributors.ĭOS itself may not be a moving target, but there is still a long way to go in supporting corner cases, features of the platform which applications rarely use, etc. DOSBox-X wants to support running all applications, including new games DOSBox Staging has more of a games-centric focus, but still is much more open to new and improved features than the original DOSBox is. The forks are at GitHub, and have GitHub Actions for CI, and more modern build processes/etc. Overall a rather conservative and risk-averse approach. They are still on SourceForge and Subversion, which also acts to discourage outside contributors.

They are only interested in running games, so will even reject bug fixes, unless you can show the bug harms some game.

The DOSBox development team really likes to take their time, and often rejects outside contributions. In many cases better served by a fork of DOSBox, such as DOSBox-X or DOSBox Staging.
