<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" ><tr><td valign="top" style="font: inherit;">Hi all:<br>Elego wanted to make a CM3IDE instance for free browsing of sources like the "Free Critical Mass Modula-3 (CM3)" since this the only excuse of a non-Modula-3 user, "I can't wait to use the compiler", or, "Do I have a platform enabled system " and we will give you a bootstrap image testable on-line, perhaps you would want to start from that. I think that anybody with modula-3 problems will appreciate that. I know of some Emulators for old platforms like Pdp-8e, Pdp-10, CDC, will anyone be keen to integrate those platforms as for have testing changes on those systems (besides showing that Modula-3 can emulate really basic and complex systems).<br>Personally I would love to fix the m3-obliq system and related tools to work across several platforms, you know, NetObj testing and some C-level coding inside m3cc , hopefully to make testing but will need to
do some C-like clearer version, since this is hard for a non-artistic computer brain also would help to have syntax and grammar rules of M3CG whatever is available (Including M3CG- Clef - C/Assembly compiler for exploratory targets). <br>I guess there is room for more things to be done.<br>Thanks in advance<br><br>--- El <b>vie, 10/2/12, felipe valdez <i><dataf4l@gmail.com></i></b> escribió:<br><blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"><br>De: felipe valdez <dataf4l@gmail.com><br>Asunto: Re: [M3devel] Think we need a new release.<br>Para: "Peter McKinna" <peter.mckinna@gmail.com><br>CC: m3devel@elegosoft.com<br>Fecha: viernes, 10 de febrero, 2012 00:22<br><br><div id="yiv882187100"><font face="courier new,monospace">I'd love to help beta-testing whatever you guys throw at me.</font><div><font face="courier new,monospace">I have linux, windows and mac (11.6) boxes for this

<br>
Firefox is doing 6 weekly releases we are lucky if we get one every 6<br>
years. Sorry thats a bit harsh, all the same we need some new<br>
commitment.<br>
