A couple of years ago, you had posted a proposal about a gdb interface
for reverse debugging
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2006-01/msg00013.html

I guess this did not make it to GDB?
Am I correct to understand that the efforts for GDB Reverse debugging
are currently focused on teawater's GDB Record patch, which you guys 
are helping with?

To be honnest, I didn't look at the details of that patch (much too low
level for me).  However, I was wondering if it considers reverse debugging 
with a target (gdbserver or other stub?)  From what I understand, 
GDB Record, will record register and memory changes as they are made.  
For some targets, storing all this may be prohibitive.
I wondered if the recording is done by GDB on the host instead?

Maybe I am going a little fast, already jumping to target reverse debugging?

Thanks for you input

marc
