Confused, for I thought that you were ignoring me?

Just had a look at your website. Doesn't give a professional
outlook when it refers to the next training courses in 2016.

I was surprised at the prices demanded for your software products
when you consider that GCC is essentially free issue.

But what seems strange is your request for an NDA when buying
some of your products.

Been looking at the 64 bit instruction set of the RPi3 of recent,
and did think about how to implement a FORTH in ARM, and what
I'd do is to have the primitives implemented by a jump absolute,
with the kernel reproduced at the end of each primitive, with
user-defined bricks being called up with the address following
the (now necessary) subroutine call.
