Re: Threads

[Jim Franklin]

Hi Roberto,
  I  sense the frustration in your request so I'll attempt to set your mind
at ease if I can. As someone mentioned:

1) they're a readily understood programming concept

also:

2) cthreads are already implemented

3) time and manpower

4) the structure of the hurd project

I think the best place to start would be the structure of the hurd project.
This is an opinion and observation on my part and should not be taken as a
given. My opinion of the structure of the hurd project is that it attempts
to approach what is known in political science as an utopian anarchy. I
believe it is this anarchistic approach that allows the potential to step
beyond "dogma". This is the freedom found in diversity. It also opens the
potential for true creative thought and insight. It seems to me that the
people in the hurd project, learn what they wish to learn, work on what they
wish to work on, and contribute what they wish to contribute. I like the way
this project is set up. The hurd is copyrighted under the GNU General Public
License and there is nothing stopping anyone from forking the project as
long as it adheres to the GNU GPL. If the scope of what a person wishes to
accomplish is greater than one person can accomplish then perhaps certain
steps might be taken. This is also opinion and would be the framework that I
would use to begin accomplishing the goal I wished to attain in the hurd
project if it required a number of people's effort.

1) Write and publish in the lists
          1.1) a proposal of what exactly I wished to accomplish
          1.2) what exactly needed to be changed in detail
          1.3) an estimate of the manpower and time required
          1.4) a justification of what one wishes to accomplish for the time
and manpower
2) Convince a bunch of people to assist in the goal

Good luck
Jim
