- This is not *quite* accurate. There is C++ work in progress, but there
- is no C++ work in progress *on the Amiga*. A portable C++ translator is
- under development, and about to go into beta test on IBM MVS and CMS.
- The translator development effort and the effort to get the mainframe
- translator documented are both getting significant resources now, and
- will benefit the Amiga C++ product when it is produced.
-
- However, Greg is accurate with regards to schedules. SAS/C++ for the
- Amiga is not going to happen in the near future.
