History

G95 was primarily developed by Andy Vaught, before he moved to competing compiler vendor PathScale. The last stable version, 0.93, was released in October 2012.^[1] Development of G95 stopped in 2013, and the compiler is no longer maintained.

GNU Fortran, a part of GCC also known as gfortran, has now bypassed G95 in terms of its Fortran 2008 implementation and in the speed of the generated code.^[2] GNU Fortran was originally forked, in January 2003, from G95.^[3]
