I don't know in the base... But LPW Episode II will provide following feature: 1. Integratied Plugin Wrapper Library The early LPW was implemented few functions, and unstable which I thinked. To implement core functions needed by Netscape Plugins, so I splited pluginwrapper. But recently, I noticed that some functions are required by some plugins. As result, I made similar wrapper libraries. So I'll try to integrate wrapper library. 2. Add AMD64 Target Architecture I didn't make wrapper library for i386. So I'll try to split MI/MD:-). But I cannot implement amd64->i386 wrapper:-(. 3. Improved Source Tree I'll try to change source tree like FreeBSD's src/lib/libc.
