I started Lesser GNULib <http://josefsson.org/lessergnulib/> for that reason. I haven't worked on it much after I started it, though. I found it better to try and work to solve all the issues instead of re-inventing the wheel. It was possible to change GNULib in ways that helped me. I didn't even commit most of my half-finished modules that I'm manually maintaining outside of the gnulib infrastructure in my projects. I still think either a Lesser GNULib project is needed, or that gnulib modules could become parametrized, or that gnulib could contain multiple implementations of the same interface (with different characteristics, license-wise, thread-safety, malloc use, etc...). I found it helped to attack the problem one module at a time, carefully considering the details. Exactly which modules do you need which are under the GPL in gnulib today? _______________________________________________ bug-gnulib mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-gnulib
