Kelly McNeill tells us about this column at osOpinion: “I’ve spent the last three days fixing compile-time bugs with xMach, and I’m currently testing using a copy of VMware running FreeBSD. The code compiled so cleanly that a stable release was inevitable, allowing me to finally start doing some of the new innovative work I dreamed up years ago, when my SPARC (since dead due to a battery issue) glowed with warmth onto me, and inspired me to create. Who knows — we might make something useful out of xMach yet. It’s certainly come a long way from seed to sprout; as its stalk strengthens, I hope to help it blossom into the full beauty of the great scheme hatched years ago.”
