re: Re: [Slashcode-general] Microsoft Port

[Blue R. <blu...@mi...>]

By porting I mean porting slash to a different language (ASP or Java or C++ or C#, ...), that kind of thing. I'm not looking for a slash clone or something else to run on the microsoft platform. I want the challenge of converting slash to a different language on the MS platform.

I hope none of the slash team take offence to this?
