I do not want to argue with the above, but just for the record I
guess, I would like to point out that perhaps some other group is
mostly responsible for bringing native compilation to Erlang/OTP.

We, the HiPE group, of course very much appreciate the support and
enjoy the very close collaboration that we have with the OTP group
these days.
