Hi

In order to build a commercially successful product I have to reduce the footprint of the system.
Having a quick look at the files showed me, that the largest files are the libs (libc.so.6 = 4M) ... as u all know.
When searching the web for replacements, I came across newlib and uclib.

Is anyone out there who has done some work with this libs?

 Are they easy to use, install, build?

Are there other (small) replacements for the libc?
