Stan is away on holidays.
I thought I posted the below several days ago, but unfortunately, it is
now looking like it didn't go out :-(
The below was drafted by Stan. I've since edited it slightly and am now
posting it.
sorry for the delay,
Andrew

Last Friday (1999-05-14) a group of GDB hackers and other
interested parties got together to discuss the maintenance
of GDB. The meeting was held at HP's Cupertino CA campus,
and included the following participants:
Andrew Cagney (cagney@cygnus.com)
J. T. Conklin (jtc@redbacknetworks.com)
Robert Dewar (dewar@gnat.com)
Klee Dienes (klee@apple.com)
Wes Embry (wes@sgi.com)
Paul Hilfinger (hilfingr@CS.Berkeley.edu)
David Metcalfe (crdjm@sgi.com)
Paul Sanville (sanville@flytrap.cup.hp.com)
Stan Shebs (shebs@cygnus.com)
Richard Stallman (rms@gnu.org)
Mike Vermeulen (mev@cup.hp.com)
Sanjay Waghray (sw@home.com)
Todd Whitesel (toddpw@wrs.com)
Much of the discussion focussed on the technical directions
that have been discussed in this forum already (multi-architecture,
multi-process, async debug). There was also discussion of
using Guile with GTK to build the standard windowed interface
for GDB.
We did agree to form a "steering committee" for GDB. This
committee (having a size and form similar to the existing GCC
committee) would focus on overall policy for GDB. Day-to-day
maintenance issues would generally continue as before.
Committee membership was not decided at this meeting, and will
be worked out in the coming weeks.
