In case, anyone missed it, here is the announcement of the PowerPC-native
Apple Dylan TR from the Dylan home page
(http://www.cambridge.apple.com/dylan/dylan.html):

On 8/5/96, Apple Computer, Inc. was happy to announce the availability of
the Power Macintosh version of the Apple Dylan Technology Release. The
goal of this release is to provide developers with the opportunity to
familiarize themselves with Dylan as a language as well as Apple Dylan as
a development experience. This is a "Technology Release" because the
software is unfinished. It contains a number of bugs, and will not be
supported or updated through Apple's standard technical support processes.

The Power Macintosh Apple Dylan Technology release is hosted on RISC-based
Macintosh systems.  However, developers will be able to produce code
targeting both the 680x0 and Power Macintosh systems.

The Technology Release is available through ADC (formerly APDA) either as
a package or standalone CD. The standalone CD provides an economical way
for developers who already have the documentation to obtain this native
version. The CD also includes the 68K version released previously. The
package includes the CD and 6 manuals. Both items will also be available
for sale at the ADC booth in MacWorld Boston.

We are expecting to ship this release on August 7,1996. The ADC order #
for the package is M5466Z/A and is listed at $59.95. The ADC order # for
the standalone CD is M5475Z/A and is listed at $39.95. See the Dylan FAQ
(question 1-1) for ordering info.
