It said it was 1/2 done and that Wes Peters was working on it [IIRC]. I'd like to see what he had. Someone who did the getpwnam function or was working on it was in contact with me also saying he was going to try to implement this as well but I don't believe he has synced up with the people on this project to do so. This leaves me in a somewhat ambiguous state of not being able to find my ass with both hands as to what the next move is. 1. Do I put this implementation in libc_r? or is that just for the userland version of pthreads and nothing else? 2. If not one where exactly is this implementation expected? Next to getpwnam? Any direction anyone can provide or incomplete attempts at this function would pretty much be a big help to my completion of this task.
