If you're going to do that, remove the pthreads implementaiton. If not, don't. > Where '+' means ported, 'o' means TODO/needs verification I vaguely tested powerpc (it sort of worked, but not entirely).

You're not going to get this for vax, m68k, alpha, hppa. That doesnt' mean nobody's using those platforms, just that there aren't many of them and they're not following "head" very closely. For the architectures QEMU and my build system support, I can set up a cron job to test stuff under qemu. (I might be able to test m68k under Aranym, but that's has no serial console and is thus not scriptable.) What counts as "sensible test results"? My problem is right now I've got a day job that eats all my time and energy during the week, so I'm down under 10 hours a week (including weekends) of open source programming time... > - SUSv4 audit > This would be the big thing, API-wise, to warrant a 1.0. > > I'd aim for 2010-06-30 for a 1.0.0-rc1 (on master), i.e. one month from > now on. I'll see what I can do. :) Rob -- Latency is more important than throughput.
