DJ,
Personally, I am here out interest and to learn.....
Although, I monitor the changes that occur in winsup with interest and I
build it for myself sometimes. I have been reluctant to contribute to the
conversations in this list when I cannot, at present, back up ideas/comments
with "patches".
Eventually I would like to contribute but at the moment most of my spare
time is taken up in trying to complete a Dual Degree in Computer Science and
Information Technology. This is in addition to doing a day job and feeding
the family.......;)
Hope that this has answered at least 1% of your question
Trevor
