Okay, I will. I thought you were going to be out of town for the month? 
Once I get something that I like, I will be sure to submit it for discussion
before doing anything else with it.

I know this should be on the ESL list instead of here, but I only check that
every few days. Whereas here, I'm constantly hitting that refresh button!
I have some documenting questions but I'll worry about them as I write the
comments and code. Since the documentation is part of the code, I'll get
clarification when I submit something for review.

It's not perfect, but as I've probably said a hundred times now I think that
Jeremy Peterson's esl0.01 is the best start we have yet. Between that code, the
ESL website, glibc and msvcrt documentation, and my own ideas that I need to
write down, I think we've got something to start with. When I have some code that
is ready for reviewing, I'll submit it for review.
