Any guess how much time and effort it would take to make the change?
According to a talk with Peter, it will be on the order of several days to a few weeks. If several people will work on it, it will be easier on everyone, of course. Are you interested in helping?
If Peter can provide a list of tasks that need doing, we can then assign the tasks to volunteers, according to; [a] their knowledge of C [b] their knowledge of the compiler
My knowledge of either is quite rudimentary, but I am willing to help. At least, I might be able to do some "mechanical" tasks. These are probably the most tedious, and it is a waste of Peter's and Frank's expertise for them to have to spend significant time on mechanical tasks (e.g., those that can be done by anybody).
