Hi Darold,

Good to hear that you're still following the development.  By the way,
we recently the following e-mail about your old link to your old
LinuxPPC port.  Do you have a more recent link, or should I remove the
link altogether?

Bill (if you get this), we have a new task area for the MacOS X and at
our new Savannah development site here:

http://savannah.nongnu.org/pm/task.php?group_project_id=495&group=swarm&func=browse

Bill Northcott at UNSW in Australia is leading the charge on the port
(with help from Alex Perrone, Marc-Antoine Parent and others).

Just a note to let you know that several links on the website are
dead, including
http://www-scf.usc.edu/~dhiga/

That said, where can I find information on Swarm on MacOS X?

Thanks,
Bill
