Announcing the port of the Exodus Storage Manager and the E persistent
object-oriented programming language to Linux.  What is ESM and E?

     From README.Exodus:

     The EXODUS Storage Manager (SM) is a multi-user object storage system
     supporting versions, indexes, single-site transactions, distributed
     transactions, concurrency control, and recovery.  E is a persistent
     programming language based on C++ (implemented in a recent version of
     GNU g++).  It uses the SM to store objects.

This binary-only distribution consists of the Exodus storage manager,
requiring approximately 2Mb of storage, and the E programming language
(based on gcc 2.5.8) requiring approximately 10Mb of storage.  The
distribution includes the full test suite for Exodus and sample E programs.
Instructions for installation under Linux can be found in esm.INSTALL.
Sources can be obtained from ftp.cs.wisc.edu:pub/exodus, or try the address
http://www.cs.wisc.edu/p/exodus/html/exodus.home.html in Mosaic.

All questions regarding the port of Exodus software to Linux should be
addressed to Mark Fleming ([email-masked]).
