[comp.os.minix] Couple of Queries

tvf@cci632.UUCP (Tom Frauenhofer) (11/15/90)

I will be taking a class next quarter at a local university.  We will be
programming using an ANSI C compiler.  I understand that one is being beta
tested/refereed for Minix.  I wonder if there is any way I could get into
the beta test/referee loop for this?  I'm willing to do whatever is needed
to stress the compiler.

Also, I would like to get news up and running on my home system.  I
currently have a modified version of the UUCP (mostly just simple bug
fixes).  I've tried sending mail to mugnet, but we have had some mailer
problems of late and responses may have bounced.  Again I'm willing to do
whatever stress testing/whatever is required.

I have also done some playing around with the SVC source control software
supplied with Minix.  I've created a new program (svc) that will list and do
simple modifications to an SVC file (only lock/unlock as of now).  I've
combined this with a shell script and a bawk script to generate a stupid
release file that can be used to generate/recreate a specific release of
(source-controlled) software.  I've also added some enhancements to ci and
co (mostly to handle multiple files, nothing really earth shattering).  Once
I'm reasonably satisfied with these what should I do with them?  Post them?
Submit to the referees?

Thanks in advance.
