Bug#634878: closed by Bart Martens <bartm@quantz.debian.org> (closing RFP: cyclone -- Cyclone compiler)



Thanks.

Cyclone's upstream decided to stop the development, saying there are newer languages using ideas Cyclone's explored, and it's time for Cyclone to be archived.

For that reason Cyclone should not be packaged for Debian in the future, at least not in its current form.
