Jens,
I just got crapped all over trying to get us "write barrier" opcodes :-/.
However I do have the start of a draft to submit soon. I could not piggy
back of FUA by MicroSoft last week.
So how did the talk go at OLS for the IDE roadmap to destruction go?
I could not attend, as I was doing other stuff associated with the
industry.
Cheers,
