As you all know, Borland announced their C port for Linux some time ago and AFAIK they didn't mention a BSD port at all. Well...when a big fish moves the smaller fish have to do something about it. Thinking that it would be a good time for us to press for a port of KAI or Comeau C++ I visited their websites. Surprise! the C compiler market is moving, but not towards FreeBSD. KAI (http://www.kai.com/) will be bought by Intel RSN. Comeau computing (http://www.comeaucomputing.com/) has released a NetBSD/i386 port. I'm not too sure if I understand how advocacy works (who does...), but if someone would be eventually interested in buying these products, it would be a good time to drop in some email to those sites. cheers, Pedro.
