Stuart Lamble <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> was working on packaging the
SRC Modula-3 (I think), but he had been very very busy (?) and for some time
he didn't (or still doesn't?) have access to the Internet.
AFAIK, there are three alternative Modula-3 distributions that we could
choose to package:
* DEC SRC Modula-3 3.6
* Cambridge Modula-3 (cam3)
- Richard Watts <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* École Polytechnique de Montréal Modula-3 (pm3)
- Michel Dagenais <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

http://m3.polymtl.ca/ (?)
CAM3 and PM3 are both based on SRC M3 3.6 (?) and have been reported to work
on Red Hat 5.0 (glibc2) AFAIK. :-) I recommend that we go with either PM3
or CAM3. (I would prefer PM3 myself because it is a Product of Canada. :-)
