I forwarded the Common LISP notice to a friend of mine who works on CMUCL internals, and he suggested:
"[they should think about starting with] CMUCL and retarget [sic] it for the new VM. That way he gets all the type inference for free [which would increase performance]" Just thought I'd pass that along, in case it's of interest. I'm not a CL guy at all, so I wouldn't even know how type inference helps performance. -- Aaron Sherman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Senior Systems Engineer and Toolsmith "It's the sound of a satellite saying, 'get me down!'" -Shriekback
