I would be interested in looking at it..although I am a novice C++ programmer.. And graduating in May, it might be a nice project to undertake before I graduate. :-)

Still love the tools tho! Quite true. I'd agreed to a company's exclusivity clause earlier in the year so I basically had to dump the entire project. Not that I wasn't way beyond sick of looking at it anyway. /-) I really have no plans to ever work on it again, soooo... if a c programmer actually wants to finish the project I have no problems with anyone dumping the thing over at sourceforge.net and having a go at it. Open source and all. Wait... yes I do have problems with c programmers. They should be c++ programmers. Reason? Some folks at NASA's primary contractor were having problems with the way it worked in a new deployment strategy a few weeks back. I tracked the issue down to the (now obvious) fact that most of the project was written in c and the global error reporting wasn't thread-safe. Easy to fix... if we weren't talking about something like 100,000 lines of code. As pro-space as I am I was almost tempted to go in and fix the bloody thing just for them. Or hire some freshman CS. If anyone seriously is interested in taking it over, just email me. I'll tell you everything you need to know to retrofit it into a set of nice thread-safe c++ COM's. --min ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
