I'm afraid I'm still not clear on the dependencies, either.

Well, we have a few weeks to go yet :-)

And we now have one week less to go.

Ok, external dependencies of sal:

None, it seems. It's really just very basic functionality:

- sockets - threads - IPC (semaphores, mutexes, condition variables) - file handling - directory handling (creating, changing, scanning) - atomic memory access

All of that is pretty basic. My pthread library already handles threads and it's IPC, minus the semaphores (which are not part of the POSIX model), but that should be easy to build.

Bottom line, this can be started, and should be started, ASAP. I'm going to make a full list of stuff that needs to be implemented.
