GSoC Introduction

[Matthew Joyce]

Dr. Joel,

Thanks! I'd definitely like to get one or two easier ones under my
belt first. Based on my initial look for what can be ported, I'd plan
to start with dladdr. Sig2str and str2sig have to be re-implemented,
but I think they should be fairly straightforward. Once I have those
done, I'll start to tackle the others. Does that sound reasonable, or
would you have a different recommendation?

Also, where can I find the master API tracking CSV file?  Thanks again!

Sincerely,

Matt
