Hello Michael,

Officially yes (it’s on 6.1.x already). But none of the release-grade distros 
are using it yet AFAIK. 

So far openSUSE Tumbleweed/Factory, Fedora 24, Ubuntu 16.10 and Debian Stretch 
have it. All are due to be released in the next few months.

We do have a .dsc and the necessary files on the Project directory in OBS, but 
the last one we tested was on Ubuntu 15.04.

But it appears to have compiled successfully on 16.04. It’s on my home 
directory:

https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:emendonca:branches:devel:languages:misc/ooRexx

You can  also create an account there, branch any package, modify it and 
recompile to any of the supported platforms, it’s free ☺
