    Things that currently being ported


    PVM 3.1 (more serious than the above(!)), Dan Clarke's VAX/UCX-port of
    PVM (Parallel Virtual Machine) is being refreshed and hopefully working soon, the main components
    seems to work quite well at the moment, but there's a lot of testing that need's to be done

    MPICH is also under preliminary investigation for porting

    Xmame
    Most of this is done, debugging right now ...


    MM5V3 is given a try, yes it's BIG, on OpenVMS Alpha only since VAX can't handle IEEE-floats
