[Cobolforgcc-devel] COBOL compiler

[Keisuke N. <kx...@po...>]

Hello,

I'm interested in working on an open-source COBOL compiler.
I've found two projects, TinyCOBOL and COBOL for GCC, and am
wondering which project I should contribute.

It seems that TinyCOBOL is more active than COBOL for GCC,
but I think the latter's approach (i.e., writing a GCC
frontend) is preferable to the other (i.e., writing a full
compiler).

So, my questions are:

  Is there any relationship between these projects?
  Are these projects going to be integrated in any future?
  How easy is it to get COBOL for GCC ready for practical use?

Thanks in advance.
