net.lang.mod2 ???
I'm all for it. I am implementing a compiler for the 68000 and there
are several places in the Report that I feel are ambiguous. I'd like to
discuss it with other people interested in Modula-2. I have one strong
disagreement (BITSET as a standard type) with the language definition but
other than that I absolutely love the language. I describe Modula-2 as
90% of Ada with 10% of the complexity (that should start a few flames).
