Although some people think there should be an update nobody is willing to do so. ;-) So we agree that want to start with submitting bugfixes before we do the big step - adding new features/functions? > Is there anything else to discuss? ;-) Sure. :-) - Who will run the CVS server? - Which mailing list do we want to use to discuss the patches? The emx list seems to be quite empty now. Maybe we can revive it for that purpose. - Which macros do we want support to control the header files? I mean things like _POSIX_SOURCE, _LARGEFILE_SOURCE, _ISO_XXX and _EMX_OLD_API versus _EMX_NEW_API (or whatever). - Which new features/functions do we want to add directly into the emx import libraries and which ones do we want to put into seperate import libraries (e.g. regex to avoid name clashes)? - When do we want to start?

I volunteer to do that if you don't want to do it at sourceforge.

We should avoid creating new mailinglists :-) cu Adrian -- Adrian Gschwend at netlabs.org ktk [a t] netlabs.org ------- Free Software for OS/2 and eCS http://www.netlabs.org
