The proper way to submit patches to the gcc-patches@gcc.gnu.org mailing list at the FSF GCC project is to follow the procedures documented at: http://gcc.gnu.org/contribute.html If you are used to how patches are submitted in FreeBSD, it's no big deal. In the source code for gcc, you will see a file called MAINTAINERS. The MAINTAINERS file lists a few names under Objective-C: objective-c Stan Shebs shebs@apple.com objective-c Ovidiu Predescu ovidiu@cup.hp.com The most active maintenance of objective-c is going on at Apple, because of all the old NeXT stuff that they have in MacOS X. Keeping in touch with the darwin-development mailing list at Apple would probably not be a bad idea, since a lot of the Apple compiler developers read that list. http://lists.apple.com/mailman/listinfo/darwin-development -- Craig Rodrigues http://www.gis.net/~craigr rodrigc@attbi.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
