DEVELOPERS NEEDED IMMEDIATELY FOR MINGW32 ALTERNATE C RUNTIME LIBRARY PROJECT


DEVELOPERS NEEDED IMMEDIATELY TO IMPLEMENT THE FOLLOWING IN THE MINGW32 ALTERNATE C RUNTIME LIBRARY PROJECT:
- ANSI/ISO C functions, including all ISO C99 functions and Unicode Functions (integrating parts of it from Newlib, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and writing other parts from scratch)
- Support only native Win32 pathname handling, including UNC pathname handling, except that forward slashes ('/') may be used instead of backslashes ('\')
- Patches to GCC to support SEH and Microsoft Platform SDK header files (if necessary, write a patching utility to patch Microsoft Platform SDK header files, especially in the case of the inline assembler)
- SEH support in the Mingw32 Alternate C Runtime Library
- Patches to Binutils to support Microsoft Platform SDK libraries (and also whole program optimization if possible)
Developers must know how to program in C or Intel IA-32 (x86) assembly.
- Patches to GCC to support #import directive
- Patches to GCC to support implementation of COM objects in C++ without compromising any features required by the ANSI C++ standard
- Intel IA-32 (x86) Assembly optimizations to C-Runtime Library functions
- Some implementation details can be found at http://mingwacr.sourceforge.net

DEVELOPERS MUST KNOW HOW TO PROGRAM IN EITHER C OR IA-32 (x86) ASSEMBLY. DEVELOPERS SHOULD ALSO KNOW HOW TO USE CVS WITH SSH. DEVELOPERS CAN FIND DOCUMENTATION ON HOW TO USE CVS WITH SSH AT THE FOLLOWING URL:
