[Openmcl-devel] Apple OKs other dev tools for iOS

[Andrew Shalit]

Yes indeed, this is very exciting news.

As noted previously (http://clozure.com/pipermail/openmcl-devel/2010-August/011782.html) we have CCL running on the ARM.  

GB has looked into getting it running under iOS.  There are, not surprisingly, some restrictions that don't exist on other platforms.
