        The format that became known as TDF.

      <para>
        To make porting the Ten15 System easier, after
        type checking had succeeded and machine-independent
        optimisations made, the untyped output of the Ten15
        compiler was provided: this became defined as Low-level
        Ten15.
      </para>

      <para>
        Low-level Ten15, being untyped, was a viable target
        for weakly-typed languages, including C.
      </para>

      <para>
        At the OSF's <emphasis>request for technologies</emphasis>
        for ANDF, Low-level Ten15 was renamed to TDF (Ten15
        Distribution Format), and put forward as a (successful)
        proposal.
