I just read in the EE Times (last week's issue, p. 108)
that there's a group called the Free Software Foundation
in Cambridge which has a C++ compiler/debugger.
This stimulated a couple of questions:

1. Are there any users on the net who have
   used their compiler/debugger?

2. Is it really free, or is that just their title?

3. Is your personal experience with a SUN?  If not,
   then what sort of system?

4. If you've used their stuff, would you recommend it?

Thanks!
