Hello everyone,

I need a compiler for the Berkeley RISC II and was told that I can write a 
backend for gcc. Several questions arises and any help is appreciated. I hope
this is the right place to ask these questions. If not, sorry!

First, how difficult is it to get this whole thing working. I was told that 
I can modify the files for Sparc and it can be done in 2 weeks. Any comments?

Second, this compiler must be able to give me assembly code and also in-line
floating point operations (RISC II doesn't have a FPU, as the Sparc does). How
does this complicate the task?

Lastly, I probably won't have the time and knowledge to take on the project
myself. Therefore I'm looking into the possibility of having someone write this for me. Anyone interested please contact me at:

		 jtien@balboa.eng.uci.edu

Two key questions are: how long will it take and how much will it cost. This is
for my Masters project and is therefore strictly non-profit.

Thanks much,

Joe Tien
