Dear Stephen, just in case you think its only Ralf, there are quite a few people who would like to have and _use_ the Aldor compiler coming with AXIOM (FriCAS). However, to do so it should be somehow free, just so that it can be shipped with AXIOM (FriCAS).
I would very much appreciate if I could start using Aldor! Free Aldor please. Thank you very much and kind greetings BF.
