If you want my serious opinion. It is "I don't know"

BSW has shipping product, with very little updates since they acquired
PMMail (was the 0.1 increment really justified to give it a new icon and
change everything from SouthSoft to BSW??)

The developer of AIMS, while seemingly quite active and noisy on this list
;) is an unknown quantity. i don't know anything about the developer's
qualifications or past history. Anyone could write up a good sounding
plan, even me. :)

And....nothing there about AIMS on OS/2, so sorry, not interested at the
present time.
