Hi *

This is to let you know that Eiffel Software has released their
premier Eiffel development IDE/compiler, called, EiffelStudio for
FreeBSD 32 and 64 bits (and OpenBSD, Linux, and Solaris) under a
dual-licensing scheme: for GPLed projects, you may use Eiffel Studio
without paying for a license.

Eiffel is an Object Oriented language with built-in safe programming
features (Design by Contract, Garbage Collection) and performance on
par with C++.

This is great news, everyone! Yet another commercial software company
betting their chips the FreeBSD platform (recently, a major Common
Lisp vendor - Lispworks - also announced their IDE for FreeBSD).

I think some of you hackers out there will appreciate this news. (*)

Hopefully, someone will write a port for it.

Best regards,

Henry Lenzi

(*) I realise this GPL choice will not result in any *BSD using it for
system software. Nevertheless, some might find it usefull (e.g., the
scientific community).
