I'm only       interested in C90.              And if there is difficulty in getting to C90, especially       finding someone willing to write "released to the       public domain", I'm interested in trimming down the       C90 standard to something that is actually       achievable.              > There are design decisions that       > make it more complex than necessary simultanously       > limiting what it can do.
