Hello.

I tried to integrate nmalloc into DJGPP 2.04, but I had some issues. See
my mail dated 11/12/03 20:04 entitled "Re: nmalloc and memalign". I
couldn't find any mail about any nmalloc updates since then, but I
didn't look particularly hard. These issues may be solved.

Given the limited resources, perhaps DJGPP 2.04 should be released
as-is? That may spur Someone(TM) to help fix the bugs in the 2.04 release.

If someone wants to take over the 2.04 status page
<http://homepages.nildram.co.uk/~phekda/richdawe/djgpp/2.04/>, let me
know. I will install pages to automatically forward people to the new
status page.

Bye, Rich =]
