A colleague of mine game me a recent article from the June 2002 Programmer's Paradise catalog that includes a discussion of merging the Compaq and Intel Fortran compilers. The article stated that there won't be any new releases of CVF until the release of the merged Intel VF (IVF?) in the second half of 2003. The current version of CVF is 6.6A. Does this mean that there won't be any 6.6B, 6.6C, etc. downloadable updates--we'll have to wait for IVF to appear?

Thanks for the references. I agree that the .NET appellation is overused, it's more an underthehood thing that doesn't need to be bandied about to confuse everyone. .NET is good for Fortran because it's language neutral unlike Java. If Mono doesn't turn out to be the resounding failure that Wine has become, .NET could do much for the popularity and portability of Fortran.

Ciao,
Gerry T.
