(Answer) (Category) Sather FAQ : (Category) General questions about Sather : (Answer) What is the development status of Sather?
Versions of Sather up to and including version 1.2b (beta) were developed at the ICSI. Under the leadership of Norbert "Nobbi" Nemec <nobbi@gnu.org> the whole Sather project has transferred from ICSI to become part of GNU. GNU Sather is under the GPL/LGPL license, and development will happen in an open style (everybody is welcome to join the team and help us).

The University of Waikato has also taken up Sather development. Waikato has released a Windows NT/2000 port of Sather 1.2 and is actively developing a new major version of the Sather compiler and core libraries. This development branch of Sather is being called Sahter-W until is has become stable enough to be released as beta. At that time the source code will be made available for open development under the name GNU Sather. That source code will become the beta release for the next version of GNU Sather.
