I'm looking forward to a release of this. Wouter Lievens 16:13, 30 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Saying Java is one of the previous works of Steele is a bit deceptive. I understand that he only came on late in the project to smooth out the syntax and some semantics.

If one wants to include previous language work of GLS, one should replace Java by High Performance Fortran where he really influenced the language design a lot, not as in Java. Some ideas, like the parallel for loop, were visible there already. jschrod 10:32, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fortran

I heard rumor that some of the people behind Fortran are working on Fortress. Is this correct? 75.67.167.110 18:12, 23 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Not as far as I know. Here's a list of the people in Sun's Programming Language Research Group. CWC 05:35, 24 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Patents

Take a look at Guy Steele's patents: http://research.sun.com/dmp/patents.php?uid=25706&show=all

Any new language designed by a company would probably have several patents covering aspects of it. Maybe it would be interesting to add a aragraph about Fortress related patents? This is very relevant to language implementors. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.37.187.41 (talk) 19:42, 19 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Independent sources

This article needs more sources external to the Project. Also, some of the external links should be made into references to support various statements in the article. However, I think it needs someone who knows more about the topic than I do. --Bduke (Discussion) 06:44, 11 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Dead links

The fortress project website appears defunct, and most of the links near the bottom of this page are dead. I have not been able to immediately find alternative links for these topics. Togr (talk) 09:22, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

External links modified

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Fortress (programming language). Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20081011223629/http://research.sun.com/projects/plrg/Publications/fortress.1.0.pdf to http://research.sun.com/projects/plrg/Publications/fortress.1.0.pdf

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{Sourcecheck}}).
