Hi Marcel,

Strange. I'll have a look.

Thanks a lot!

Hi John,

yes, that is quite interesting. I see that there are some mentions of
the QL... Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the positive feedback.

I forgot one more thing, there will be a virtual meeting this Saturday
1PM UK time/14:00 German time on Zoom. Anybody wanting to participate
can send a mail to ad...@qlforum.co.uk and get the link.

I didn't know this, interesting. Especially as they are apparently
succeeding in getting LLVM to output 68k code. That means that
eventually the clang compiler could cross compile to 68k and we really
could use an up-to-date C (cross-)compiler.

The FreePascal developer was very pleased with the positive feedback
and is willing to invest more time into the QL port, this is very
exciting, too.

Cheers, Marcel
