4 All,
5
6 ~ I recently noticed fpc (free pascal compiler) in the tree, took
7 interest in it, and am now actively maintaining it. During this
8 process, a few things came into play:
9
10 1) The idea of a new dev-pascal category
11 2) A pascal herd
12 3) Getting some more pascal stuff into the tree
13 4) A possible new keyword added to make.conf called
14 PFLAGS/PASCAL_FLAGS/PASFLAGS/WHATEVER_BEGINS_WITH_P_AND_CAN_BE_UPPERCASED
15
16 Which leads to the following:
17
18 In regards to #1: need to see what the overall impression is on that
19 In regards to #2: need to see if there's people that would be
20 interested in joining this new herd
21 In regards to #3: depends on #1 and #2
22 In regards to #4: same here, see what the overal impression is. I
23 mainly propose this as, with C[XX]FLAGS, I'm sure that people would
24 want the most control possible over the output flags.
25
26 At this point it's merely an up in the air issue. I'd like to see
27 what overall impressions are before I go and do anything with it. I'm
28 also asking that anyone with interest for helping in #2 to please
29 contact me off the list. Thanks ahead of time for any comments!
