That is correct, the currently available port is only for OpenVMS on AXP
platforms. So far no one has been interested in funding a Vax port, though
it is certainly technically feasible, and we are gathering information on
anyone who might be interested in commercial support for a Vax port if
one existed. So if you are interested in commercial support for a Vax port
of GNAT (which like the AXP port would be highly DEC Ada compatible), please
send email to sales@gnat.com and let us know.
