for the current status (of course better use a mirror of ftp.gnu.org).
-[ 6] Write `long double' versions of the math functions.
-
- The libm is in fact fdlibm (not the same as in Linux libc 5).
-
-**** Partly done. But we need someone with numerical experiences for
- the rest.
-
-
-[ 7] Several math functions have to be written:
-
- - exp2
-
- with long double arguments.
-
- Beside this most of the complex math functions which are new in
- ISO C99 should be improved. Writing some of them in assembler is
- useful to exploit the parallelism which often is available.
-
-
[ 8] If you enjoy assembler programming (as I do --drepper :-) you might
be interested in writing optimized versions for some functions.
Especially the string handling functions can be optimized a lot.
the currently implemented methods.
-[22] Done.

-
[23] The `strptime' function needs to be completed. This includes among
other things that it must get teached about timezones. The solution
envisioned is to extract the timezones from the ADO timezone
user should be preferred even if the last user spent more time.
-[26] ...done

[27] We need a second test suite with tests which cannot run during a normal
`make check' run. This test suite can require root priviledges and
can test things like DNS (i.e., require network access),
