SGI Drops Linux IA-64 Compiler Support

Packetknife writes: "It would seem SGI has dropped support for their Pro64 compiler suite. Many people are aware that SGI has some of the best compiler people in the business. Their contributions would be most excellent and I'm hoping they continue heavy support for GCC. Either way, they are asking for feedback. Please send email to [e-mail] to let them know you want this project to continue and contribute to GCC as well. Any work SGI does on the compilers will help all platforms and the whole community."

Re:Why should SGI invest in Linux at all since..
