   Hi,

 I'm glad that you agree on most parts.

 I think, though, that Mico should still work quite well with Solaris
2.6, using gcc. So "withdrawing" "support" (if you want to call it that
way) is not happening.

 Supporting commercial compilers has always been a major problem for us.
Since we don't have access to systems running them, we are dependent on
users to complain and to send patches.

	Frank
