[Ecls-list] Solaris/SPARC port

[Juan Jose Garcia-Ripoll]

Hi,

I am proud to announce that ECL now compiles and runs under Solaris/SPARC. 
Finally the environment works not only in statically linked mode, but also 
allows compiling and loading lisp code in the form of dynamically linked 
libraries.

The changes have been uploaded to CVS. People with anonymous CVS access will 
get access to the latest sources about tomorrow --- you know, SourceForge has 
a strange policy regarding CVS these days ---. However, I remind you that my 
computer creates regularly a patch file that can be applied to the latest 
release (i.e. 0.9) and contains all of the latest changes

	http://ecls.sf.net/patch-0.9-current.gz

I am looking for volunteers that take the task of maintaining other ports: 
FreeBSD, NetBSD, Cygwin, etc. The amount of work is now minimal, as it will 
be porting to other 32-bit environments (Solaris/Intel???, Linux/ARM, ...).

Best regards

	Juanjo
