I was referring to Michael Elizabeth Chastain, Keith Owens, and the other people on the kbuild list who officially maintain the CML1 tools in the kernel tree. The same people who took up my offer to attempt a better alternative to CML1 eighteen months ago.
And, by the way, there is no CML1 :-). Instead, there are four mutually incompatible dialects and a rulebase that breaks in different ways depending on which interpreter you use. Well, maybe just three mutual incompatible dialects and one clone -- but it's notoriously hard to verify that two interpreters have the same accept language, so nobody knows for sure. -- <a href="http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/">Eric S.
