The goal of pnetC is to be able to run any arbitrary ANSI/Posix C code on top
of the CLI in bytecode-compiled form.
There are literally thousands of interesting Free Software libraries written
in C that can be leveraged once we have the basic platform in place. Much
more than C#, VB, Java, etc can provide on their own.
The C compiler is now in pretty good shape and some help is needed on porting
glibc. But we are poised to bring a huge amount of stuff across, leveraging
what has gone before.
Cheers,
Rhys.
