Highwire uses a KISS principle while enhancing FreeMint would allow us to port more applications. The latter is the better option IMO but does limit who can help. Could we draw up a roadmap of features to add to FreeMint and determine a sensible, practical order to approach them in ? No doubt there are dependencies that I have no idea about. Things like other libraries and compiler targets. Are there any easy wins, things that can be added relatively easily now that will make life easier ? Peter
