GCL getting slushy ...



Greetings!  This is just a heads up that its looking good for a GCL
stable release by 2/29.  If you have any testing you want to do, now
is the time!

At least on Debian GNU/Linux, I can state that no GCL specific
problems are known in building and self-testing any of gcl,acl2,maxima
and axiom on all 11/12 supported platforms.  Likewise nqthm-1992 and
pc-nqthm-1992, the latter with an expanded value stack, also pass on
i386. 

We also have good reports from Windows/mingw, macosx, and freebsd,
though the latter are a bit old now.  Additional testing and reports
on these systems are most appreciated.  I will also endeavor to run
some tests on solaris.

The latest stable source can be retrieved from cvs via

export CVS_RSH=ssh
export CVSROOT=:ext:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/gcl
cvs -z9 -q co -r Version_2_6_1 -d gcl-2.6.1 gcl

Binaries and source (slightly older) in html form can be found at 

http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/boyer/gcl/

The 2.6.2 release will be made to the official site, now restored, at
ftp.gnu.org. 

Take care,
