This is false, MCL will be upgraded to PowerPC.
It's also true that Apple will concentrate on Dylan - instead, Apple has
licensed all future MCL development to a company called Digitool. They're
working very hard on all sorts of good things for MCL, and we're very
pleased that MCL has a warm and caring home. Your continued support for
MCL will be most appreciated.
