I'm looking for information on the Oberon compiler from Fridtjof Siebert. The distribution's Readme file said it was to be released in September of last year, but made no mention of price. Is it available, and if so from the addresses in the distribution? How much? Any information will be much appreciated. John

I contacted both the australian company supposedly handling english-speaking world distribution (who said there'd been so little interest they were basically giving up) and the european agents (who said "we're not planning on doing an english version - if you want it in german no problem") So unless you're fluent in german it looks no go... of course if _enough_ people were to show interest it might be possible to make them change their minds and do an english translation ( the demo version was _very_ good ) ----------------------------------------------------------- | o John Davis - CHEM194@canterbury.ac.nz o | | o (Depart)mental Programmer,Chemistry Department o | | o University of Canterbury, Christchurch, New Zealand o | | o o | | o co-sysop AmigaINFO BBS,1200/2400 baud CCITT, o | | o 24 hours a day, ph NZ +3-3371-531 o |

I contacted A+L AG and they told me the price is $250. with docs in German only. The price is sadly way out of my range. Victor
