Clean 1.2 for the Mac and PowerMac (native) is now available from
our ftp site:

    ftp://ftp.cs.kun.nl/pub/Clean/Clean12/mac/

The system comes in three flavours:

    Clean12.68k.sea.hqx:        Clean 1.2 for 68k Macs.
    Clean12.ppc.sea.hqx:        Clean 1.2 for PowerMacs.
    Clean12.both.sea.hqx:       Clean 1.2 for 68k and PowerMacs.

The 68k version runs on 68k Macs and PowerMacs (emulated) and generates
68k code. The PPC version runs on PowerMacs (native) and can generate
68k code and PPC code.

With the exception of the slight syntax changes for existential types, 
all changes are extensions or new facilities such that a Clean 1.1 
program will usually run without any change in Clean 1.2.  A complete
list of changes in Clean 1.2 can be viewed at

Releases for other platforms will follow. They will also be announced on
this mailing list.
