Re: Non-stop multi-threaded debugging

Hi Jim,
I'm glad to hear that you're receptive to feedback in defining the 
protocol for these new features.  I will be glad to write up my proposal 
as a starting point for discussion.  I've never participated on this 
list before or in any other GDB forum, so forgive my ignorance, but is 
this mailing list the appropriate place for this discussion?  Is there a 
bugzilla or other bug database where I could post this document?  And 
what is the best format for such design document.

Thanks
Pawel
