Thanks. FWIW, I'm getting an error when trying the URL given in your github repo: http://mirimmad.me/ but https://mirimmad.github.io/ seems to work - but it's almost empty. You don't give many specifics in your personal decription. One thing I'm not seeing is a sense of how proficient you are in various programming languages. In particular, how is your C and C++? How familiar are you with the debugger? Looking at your github, you seem to have relevant experience in compilers, which is great, but all your code appears to be with "managed" languages such as Ruby, Java, and Python [and Zeta :)]. Also, the proposal is to extend the analyzer to cover a specific domain: various POSIX APIs. Can you please give a sense of your level of expertise with these APIs? I was pleased at your initiative in trying to reuse the existing code to work with them. That said, I got the sense from your previous emails that you're not very familiar with the APIs, and that you chose them because that was the suggestion I had made on the wiki page. Obviously it's something you can learn on the way, but it would be better to accurately identify which areas you're going need to learn along the way, and the timetable and scope should reflect that. Hope this is constructive Dave
