[M3devel] Status of CM3

[Elmar Stellnberger]

A new release would be great!
I have been waiting to get all the qt and gtk libraries packed with a new release.
If I wanna do some end user application development like the CoAN simulator in Modula-3 it will actually need to work with a release because I can not demand the users of my applications to compile the compiler first (That would harshly drop the usage rates).

Concerning a contribution from my side for a new CM3 release I could perhaps manage to get everything packed into .deb and .rpm package in summer as I do already have some experience in this field.

Regards,
Elmar
