BTW, I would think that RMS would recommend a BSD-style license for this kind of project (he did so for Ogg Vorbis). > (4) MULTI-THREADING > My question is, how much of a problem is this for the embedded market? Have you looked at GNU Pth? It's a non-preemptive threading package which should be reasonably portable.

IOW, the parser starts only after the communication layer has finished transmitting the message. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The Cryptography Mailing List Unsubscribe by sending "unsubscribe cryptography" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
