Hi,

I am the person who is doing the port of ADAED. I am now half way with
the port, but at the moment my Archimedes 310 gets a memory upgrade.
To get ADAED compiling on the Archie I need more memory, thats why I
upgrade my machine. My friend who is doing this upgrade said to me that
it will take two weeks to do this upgrade (he has a normal job and is
doing this in his spare time). So I hope I can continue with it in about
two weeks (after two weeks I have a lot more spare time also, so the
porting should go a bit faster. At the moment I did the programming in
the weekends).

Bye,

Angelo
