The status has not changed: Both you and I want to revise and rewrite the original draft patches that you put into the topic branch. Nothing can be merged to the trunk. Ad [1/7]: Half of the work has been done, but not yet pushed. <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2010-11/msg00199.html> [2/7]: <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2010-10/msg00308.html> [3/7]: <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2010-10/msg00307.html> libposix needs to install only selected headers, not all of them. Let the script look at the 'Include:' section of each module description. [4/7]: <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2010-10/msg00306.html> more discussion needed [5/7]: Patch to be rewritten to use nobase_nodist_include_HEADERS <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2010-10/msg00293.html>, also need to add an Automake conditional to distinguish libposix from other projects. Also see whether the Automake bug can be fixed. <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2010-10/msg00325.html> [6/7]: Mostly a discussion between you and Bruce. From my point of view, anything you have here and that works can be re-proposed for the trunk. [7/7]: <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2010-10/msg00303.html> Patch to be revised. Bruno
