Sounds great.

I am going to support you, as my time allows.

Yes.

Not necessarily, depends on what we want. I can imagine having a C Uno
Runtime, being implemented (partly) in C++, only importing and exporting
C ABIs. Though we may want to discuss this with other Uno interested
parties on this alias.

Yes.

Mostly yes. Though the C Runtime may be implemented in C++, as long as
no C++ dependencies / provisions are made.

These are the tasks.

Basically yes. Unfortunately it is not as easy as it may look like,
because of build dependencies (e.g. moving all C++ out of cppu to
cppuhelper is not possible, because cppuhelper is build after cppu and
only delivers its headers after cppu, while cppu is implemented in C++
and relies on these headers).
