I don't think I can veto anything, but I'll go on the record again saying that I don't think this entire plan is a good idea. Write a new project in C++? Absolutely. Convert a large existing one to a different language? A huge waste of time that will distract us for years from actual user-visible changes. I also find debugging C++ in gdb somewhat more annoying than debugging plain C, and at the moment I always go back to a stage1 compiler. Bernd
