Hi all.

I've just released SweetAda 0.9.

wide range
of machines. Please refer to https://www.sweetada.org.

Release notes
-------------

There are too many changes, so I will list only the most important features=
 of this release.

- Windos environment does not need the grep utility, nor a dos2unix utility=
 (which is now provided internally); elftool is now optionals and its use i=
s configurable in configuration.in

- RTS can be build from sources by means of "CPU=3D<cpu> make rts" command =
(the RTS type is being picked up from configuration.in as usual), every RTS=
 branch will be named like the toolchain triplet being used

- Both SweetAda and RTS are fully buildable in Linux, Windos/cmd.exe, Windo=
s/MSYS and OS X; you should only to have online a "make" and "sed" (and for=
 Windos these are available as zip packages in Sourceforge); due to this, t=
here are no RTS packages anymore

- SweetAda does not relies on SweetAda toolchains, you can use your own GNU=
 toolchain, or whatever GNAT you can pick, just be sure to use Ada 2020

The final result is a package that is fully auto-consistent, because the co=
re, RTS and utilities are fully provided in both source form and executable=
 form. Since SweetAda toolchains are by no means eligible as the unique com=
pilers for the system, they will slowly fade away.
