I would like to let you all know how very much appreciated your work on GDB/MI is. Without you all, there would be nothing here for the rest of us to work on. Andrew, although I've made my comments in the past about patch review time, I still greatly appreciate the effort put into GDB/MI and the quality of the patch review that was done, as time permitted. With that said, I think there is something to say about the future of MI. The text you wrote above can be taken in several ways. In particular, what role do you or any other GDB maintainers plan to take over the next several years in regards to GDB/MI? I have several goals in mind for GDB/MI. I've posted several patches to the list to modify the testsuite to do syntax checking. Is anyone going to be able to allow this patch into GDB? or am I up the stream without a maintainer? Thanks, Bob Rossi
