(...) Ahah! Now *that* is interesting to me. Obviously (as the legOS HOWTO maintainer), a gcc replacement doesn't really interest me, unless you have a reliable solaris->h8300 cross-compiler, in which case maybe we can talk :) However, I think I (as (...)

I will be teaching several 5th to 8th grade students how to build Lego-based Robots and how to program them in RcxCODE and NQC. We're located in Rural Vermont (!tm) in the NorthEast U.S. I was privileged to get to MindFest on Sunday at MIT, and (...) (25 years ago, 27-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
