Neil,
It is not true that John Toebes and SAS have been doing the Lattice
compiler all along. Much of the work was done at Lattice. SAS did start
doing much of the compiler internals after SAS bought Lattice, but most
everything else was still done at Lattice.
BTW, it is quite unfair to credit SAS with much of the compiler internals
since they were original developed by Francis Lynch, one of the founders of
Lattice.
