[Tinycc-devel] TCC in GSoC2k9

[pancake]

I have proposed TCC as a project to be developed this summer
into the google summer of code of this year under the umbrella
of the suckless project.

People interested contact me or address@hidden

Here's the text:

"""


     Improve tcc

We'd like to see tcc <http://bellard.org/tcc/> being continued and 
improved. gcc is too slow and too focused on language-agnostics and 
particularly focused on its C++ support. We got the impression that most 
open source software is written in C and makes no use of C++, so that 
it's desirable to have an improved tcc.

We are also concerned about recent attempts to implement the C front-end 
of gcc in C++. We believe that is a bad decision in general (due to 
demanding C++ as bootstrapping environment) and would like to get rid 
from the gcc dependency for these reasons.

We'd like to see that the improved tcc is able to build all suckless 
projects and perhaps the modern libc replacement.
