If, however, you are building software that is explicitly versioned, or if you need to support multiple versions of your software in the wild, then git-flow may still be as good of a fit to your team as it has been to people in the last 10 years. In that case, please read on.

JET Blue? JET Red? oder doch Extensible Storage Engine (ESE)?
Extensible-Storage-Engine – A Non-SQL Database Engine
The Extensible Storage Engine (ESE) is one of those rare codebases having proven to have a more than 25 year serviceable lifetime. First shipping in Windows NT 3.51 and shortly thereafter in Exchange 4.0, and rewritten twice in the 90s, and heavily updated over the subsequent two decades after that, it remains a core Microsoft asset to this day.
The ESE is open source: https://github.com/microsoft/Extensible-Storage-Engine
Is this the JET database / engine?
No. Well … it depends … the question is not quite correct. Most people do not know that JET was an acronym for an API set, not a specific database format or engine. Just as there is no such thing as „the SQL engine“, as there are many implementations of the protocol, there is no „JET engine“ or „JET database“. It is in the acronym, „Joint Engine Technology“. And as such, there are two separate implementations of the JET API. This is the JET Blue engine implementation, see Notes in here. The origin of the colors have an an amusing source by the way. Most people think of the „JET engine“ as JET Red, that shipped under Microsoft Access. This is not that „JET engine“. We renamed to ESE to try to avoid this confusion, but it seems that the confusion continues to this day.https://github.com/microsoft/Extensible-Storage-Engine

The History of Development of Norton Commander
Norton Commander for DOS is the original line of Orthodox file managers that exists in five major versions: 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 and 5.0. Only the last one has an additional sub-version (nc 5.5). All versions are still used (mostly by DOS enthusiasts) and are often posted on the abandonware sites. […] It was probably one of the most popular file manager of the DOS era, which along with Xtree remains one of the few programs which managed to transcend their DOS roots and Norton Commander descendants (OFM managers) now exist on all popular OSes. The first version of NC (1.0) was designed and written by John Socha in 1984-1989. We provide a short biographical notes about him later in this chapter.

Hi-Eddi – Mein erstes Malprogramm ;-)
Hi-Eddi ist ein sehr bekanntes Zeichen- und Mal-Programm für den hochauflösenden Grafikmodus, das in den Computerzeitschriften 64’er und Happy Computer Mitte der 1980er-Jahre zum Abtippen als Listing des Monats erschien. Im Gegensatz zu den meisten damals käuflichen Programmen, die im Multicolor-Modus arbeiten (mehrere Farben, aber nur halbe Auflösung), ist Hi-Eddi konsequent als Zeichenprogramm mit maximaler Auflösung von 320×200 Punkten konzipiert. Die Farbfähigkeiten sind nur ein „Nebenprodukt“ und deshalb nicht so ausgeprägt.

SOFTICE 3.25 FOR WINNT/2000 NUMEGA
SoftICE is a kernel mode debugger for DOS and Windows up to Windows XP. Crucially, it is designed to run underneath Windows such that the operating system is unaware of its presence. Unlike an application debugger, SoftICE is capable of suspending all operations in Windows when instructed. For driver debugging this is critical due to how hardware is accessed and the kernel of the operating system functions.
