We have a 1984 version of the Powell Modula-2 compiler for UNIX 4.2. We are looking to upgrade this version to a more recent version. However, we can't locate Michael Powell; the DEC Western Research Laboratory no longer exists. E-mail is returned for addressee unknown; phone calls are referred to a DEC office that doesn't seem to know anything about Powell or the compiler. Can anybody out there help us? To avoid unnecessary replies, the address and phone that DO NOT WORK: Michael L.

You might try DEC-SRC. They were using the Powell compiler there & made several enhancements. I don't know their number, but I think that they're in Palo-Alto. If you contact a DEC regional office, they may know more.

I attempted to mail this, but it bounced (several ways, too...)

Thus, if you send to decwrl.dec.com it SHOULD get to him. I don't have a mail path to acetes, but my guess is decwrl does. If that doesn't work, send mail to the postmaster there. If you cannot even get to decwrl, send me mail and I will forward it (decwrl is just down the road a little ways...)
