Are there any IBM OS/2 developers (kernel, drivers, apps) on here from
back in the day?

a very little bit, Boca OS2 people contacted Endicott about scheduling
and resource management .... Endicott sent them to me ... some old
email:

http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2007i.html#email871204
http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2007i.html#email871204b

scheduling and resource management posts (customers frequently
called it fairshare scheduling, since the default policy was
fairshare)

Just a user here (for many years, from 1.1 until the end)

Me too.  Still using OS/2, in fact, now that I think about it, I'm still
supporting Iron Spring PL/I on OS/2, though  I don't know how many users I
have.

I did apps.  My first job evaluated 1.1.  A few years later I worked at IBM 
writing apps.  Did a few more apps for MCI.  My personal system is still 
usable though it doesn't get much use.

I may get to Warpstock this year since it is nearby.  I haven't been to one 
of those in many years.

David
