Re: Unofficial Red Hat Port

Okay I'll ask...   Is there FORTRAN support?


Now on to my real question...

how much real world testing has been done?   Has the output been put onto
real msp430 chips?

Or are you testing against the test suites?

just wondering how much it has been banged on.


Is it Alpha/Beta status?


I handle building and supporting to some level the compilers being used for
msp430 development for TinyOS.
