Hey, Folks;

    Great rumour, but it is not true.  GT.M has NOT been ported to Oracle
(interesting concept, like a Moving Van being ported to an Ox Cart).  What
Nancy was trying to report was that GT.M had been able to be used on OS X 10
on a Mac, but it needs to be fully tested.  As Nancy indicated, it was tried
two years ago, and seemed to work OK.   It needs to be done again on the
latest release of OS-10 on the latest hardware, and then fully tested.  This
has announcement has significant implications!  Is GT.M Open Source, ported
onto OS X, still Open Source when it is run on OS X?  Or is it that
licensing is now owed to Fidelity (it isn't the X86 architecture any more)?
;^)

      Best wishes;   Chris
