Re: Lahey contributions to gfortran?

A little more than a year ago, there was this announcement on the gfortran list:

Marlette Software builds the GFortran compiler and develops, packages, and maintains the product for Lahey. Marlette is co-owned by ex-Lahey employees Chris Dewes and Tim Zeisloft. While our main focus is the IDE, we recognize the contribution the compiler makes to the product and we are committed to donating a percentage of our net income to either the GFortran project directly, or to where it is deemed to be most needed to improve GFortran.
Does anyone know how they have followed through? I haven’t seen any new developer in the team recently, nor any contribution from Marlette to the code or documentation, and only two bugs reports (with no work on the bugs themselves).


Regardless of recent followup, the addition of ability to run and build gcc/g++/gfortran on cygwin64 is a major contribution which seems to have some association with that effort. The gfortran/VS Shell sales page seems not to have been updated in 13 months:
