I think they planned to do it, just that, nobody gave any new version DEC SRC M3, and it was one of the last things to be scheduled to be released. <br>The original post explaining this same reason is here inside DEC:<br>http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.modula3/browse_thread/thread/246542d2609608c7/6e9f7b0a0dd35ce9?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&q=modula3+release+3.6#6e9f7b0a0dd35ce9<br>Perhaps if we enough petitions we will have some day, what do you think? Perhaps is worth the time, the most difficult thing is finding it, but I guess it would be in the same part they worked or a file server over there, if they allow someone a permission to seek in their files, is just that, we can try to find it. I hope so. I mean what is the reason for keeping it if they did it to use it and explore it, and just because of time they didn't published.<br>Have a nice and happy new year folks!<br><br><br>--- El <b>mié, 29/12/10, Daniel Alejandro Benavides D. <i><dabenavidesd@yahoo.es></i></b> escribió:<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><br>De: Daniel Alejandro Benavides D. <dabenavidesd@yahoo.es><br>Asunto: Re: [M3devel] gui problems?
