Re: Preparing for the GDB 5.0 / GDB 2000 / GDB2k release

Sending in patches is a great way to show commitment, yes.  Care to
list the patches which have been submitted but not checked in?  URLs
to sourceware.cygnus.com mail archives are sufficient, I'm not asking
for updating or new analysis unless perhaps if you know the old
submission is wrong.  You can see my own list (for patches I have
submitted) at http://people.redhat.com/kingdon/

At the risk of making an inflammatory and/or irrelevant analogy, I
think of it a little bit like TCP/IP.  In TCP, a sender needs to
retransmit if packets are dropped by IP.  Furthermore, in case of
congestion random-drop generally works better than queueing.

As far as I know this is underway (unless of course if everyone is
assuming someone else is taking care of making it happen).  Feel free
to keep bugging us.
