Not too difficult does not mean it won’t be time consuming. Time is not something I can volunteer these days, hopefully others will be up to the task. My priority right now is cleaning up APE’s getsockopt to support other Python scripts, a new build of Python and Mercurial—with hggit. We should have had decent getsockopt() and setsockopt() implementations for a while, both will be needed for any more advanced APE dependencies— possibly including trying to port git if you want SO_KEEPALIVE. I look forward to Go’s fifth version control system. Hopefully that one will be concise, written in Go, and not gimmicky with cartoon advertising everywhere. -jas
