So I had it in my mind already for a while to continue the effort with the VAX backend I have started with the MODE_CC conversion, as a port maintainer. There has been the outstanding issue of improving code generation with LRA we are going to switch to sometime as well as other problems noticed in the course of said conversion. I will be happy to look into all this and more for the port to improve and I seem to have been the only person making substantial changes to the port in the recent times. And I can serve as the point of contact for any queries or discussions about the port. Would the GCC steering committee be willing to hand this responsibility over to me? Maciej
