    I've doubts that anyone will read this, but... Today, the MorphOS/PPC version of Free Pascal Compiler successfully compiled itself on MorphOS for the first time. This means, the compiler is practically ported to MorphOS, only additional support library functions need to be implemented (eg. for Delphi compatibilty and to support MOS specific features), and no longer need to cross-compile anything from Linux. Compiling over 180.000 lines of Pascal source takes ~60 seconds on 1Ghz G4. And most of the time is consumed by the slow C-written GNU AS and LD... ;-)

    So expect a beta version and some official announcement soon... :-D
