Hi Mario,
I think there is probably a simple answer to why so few people are contributing code. It's because they can't.
My suspicion is that maybe 90% of the people lurking on the list have no substantial experience coding in C or anything similar. Most of us are system engineers not software developers. Those that do software development do it in LL or FBD etc and not C.
As a result there might be only 10 or 20 people lurking that have any real C programming skills and many of these are too busy to contribute
significantly. So that leaves about 2 people who are actually able to contribute real code.
Most of us are used to telling suppliers and contractors what we want and not actually coding it from scratch. I know that doesn't help you very much but we do appreciate what you are trying to produce.
Regards
Peter Whalley
