I've removed one font (the large helvetica) and added
two (a 14x24 and a scalable). I've also stripped all
the fonts (except the scalable). Nothing else has been
removed (so far). There is one significant addition --
a new application that runs in X.

Probably.

Nope. Still waiting -- nothing from them since January.

The README file already says:

Problem?

To boot correctly, BL3 needs a relatively clean DOS. If BL3
refuses to boot (or it crashes when you try to run X), start
your DOS without extras: no CONFIG.SYS, no AUTOEXEC.BAT, no
Windows.
