Thanks, Dan. You have seconds. I'll contact you offline to get you set up.
Correction, I jumped the gun. As this is a community (not project) proposal, we need a Governing Board member(s) to weigh in before we can move ahead. Eric

[1,2] The mission of the community is simple: raise the overall code quality of the system. The intention of the community is to provide a nexus for a group of people who are already active in the community and to attract new talent who share our values. The technical scope of the community is roughly: - Automated code checking (lint, cstyle, check_rpath, etc.) - Care and feeding of the build process - Retiring obsolete subsystems - Other types of code cleanup While this community has some similarity to the Linux "kernel janitors" [3] project, our focus will be more on structural changes than on code examination ("we're not here to sweep up after your broken project"). The community expects that it will necessarily have some overlap with the OS/Net community and with the Tools community.
