Here's a few that I think would really be helpful...

* Fully featured sprintf() library.  Even more, everything in <stdio.h>
* Full support for all of our favorite StrXXX() functions in a library.
* A graphics library holding all of the "expected" 2D graphics calls (circle, arcs, 
flood filling, etc. ) as the Win32 Device
Context provides.
* Networking library that conforms to Berkeley Socket syntax and function as much as 
possible knowing the limitations of the
INetLib.
* A "higher math" library that would feature things like matrices, diff. equ., 
imaginary numbers and integration for really
sophisticated scientific applications.
* Neural Net library capable of fore and back chaining for anyone who wants to 
continue where Newton stopped.
* An animation frame library that handles optimal double buffering for the different 
versions of OSes while the API can stay the
same.

I understand that OpenGL is in progress of being ported so I'll leave that out.  Yes, 
I would love to beta test for anyone willing
to take up the challenge to these.
