<p dir="ltr">So this is part of this upcoming effort?</p>
<p dir="ltr">Chris and I chatted last week that once this happens, the number of configure options should really be able to decline. SMP, MP, and the set of tests to build are the primary ones we would need to have.</p>

<p dir="ltr">Yes. Moving POSIX .h files to newlib is good IMO. And if Cygwin decides to also use them, it is better for a broader community.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Check with the newlib community to see if there bite. Corrina and Jeff usually like to share the headers.</p>

<p dir="ltr">Any thoughts on how to move the drivers that are in BSPs when the old stack is external? Obviously they need to go along with the stack.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Chris and I have discussed at least some of the network services being considered packages beyond the stack. Stuff like httpd, ftpd, and telnetd should be able to work with either stack. Having one instance of those to maintain would be great.</p>
<p dir="ltr">I'm happy to see all this happen. Hopefully it can show up in digestable pieces.</p>
