My next task is to start porting the Perl unit tests to C as a concrete way of thinking about how the C user API is going to work. I would welcome your input and help on this front. Right now the c/ dir in trunk just has a basic autoconf setup in place, mostly as proof-of-concept (i.e. I'm not married to how it's implemented so far). Let me know if you'd like to pitch in in this area. I am often on irc at freenode in #lucy_dev (nick: karpet) if you find real-time chat more helpful. Otherwise, this list is the best place to start asking questions. cheers, pek -- Peter Karman . http://peknet.com/ . [email protected]
