The questions in this category are regarding things that people
are working on or that the RTEMS community would like to see work on.

There are multiple ways to support the RTEMS Project.  Financial support
is always welcomed.  This can be via sponsorship of a specific project
such as one of the ones listed here or via volunteering in some
capacity.

@subsection Kaffe

This porting effort is underway and active.

@itemize @bullet
@item Jiri Gaisler <jgais@@ws.estec.esa.nl>
@item Oscar Martinez de la Torre <omt@@wm.estec.esa.nl>
@end itemize

NOTE: An older version of Kaffe was ported to a pre-4.0 version of RTEMS.
The network support in RTEMS was immature at that port and Kaffe had
portability problems.  Together these resulted in an unclean port which
was never merged.

This porting effort is pending testing.  Erik ported the code but then
discovered that his target board did not have enough memory to run
any TAO tests.

@subsection POSIX 1003.1b

Support for POSIX 1003.1b is mature but there are a few remaining
items including a handful of services, performance tests, and
documentation.  Please refer to the Status chapter of the
@i{POSIX API User's Guide} for more details.


@node ITRON 3.0, , POSIX 1003.1b, APIs

@subsection ITRON 3.0

Support for ITRON 3.0 is in its beginning stages.  There are
numerous managers left to implement, both functional and
performance tests to write, and much documentation remaining.
Please refer to the Status chapter of the @i{ITRON 3.0 API User's Guide}
for specific details.
