GSoC Project: Porting Unix libc to Xen

GSoC Project: Porting Unix libc to Xen

[Sagar Kadam]

Hello to the Xen-Devel Community,
I am Sagar Kadam and I'm student at Polytechnic Institute of New York 
University.
As a participant of Google Summer of Code 2011 for Xen, I will be 
porting C library from BSD project to Xen as a replacement to the newlib 
library present, under the mentor-ship of Ian Jackson.
The reason is to have more POSIX compliant C library. This project will 
demonstrate usage of character and block devices, develop 
multi-threading support and port Xenstored.

I appreciate any comments or suggestions on the project.

As I understand it, it is meant for miniOS-based stubdoms?

Please explicitly Cc me when posting patches/comments/etc. to the
mailing list, to catch my attention.  Also do not hesitate to Cc me when
asking questions.  I didn't know exactly about the Xen GSoC projects so
didn't join for mentoring, but I can help.

Yes indeed.

Sagar,
welcome to the community.

Samual,
thanks for helping out. Your the second person who missed Xen GSoC 
projects. I was wondering whether it makes sense to keep a list of 
people who I should pro-actively get in touch with before GSoC next year.

Best Regards
Lars
