Hi,
I'm going to fork Clang to make a teaching toy. I've decided to fork
because nobody should ever want the features I have in mind in a
production grade compiler (at least nobody sane) and they mostly apply
only to C99 (support for other C based languages would be either way too
complicated or outright impossible).
The goal of my project is to create a tool which would allow using C99
as the first programming language for complete beginners and force them
to adopt some coding style in the process, mostly by nagging them about
anything that even remotely looks like beginner mistake.
I prefer to use GPLv2 for my extensions but if you like some of my code,
just let me know and I'll relicense it to University of Illinois Open
Source License. I'll also appreciate any hint how to improve my code or
criticism how badly I abuse Clang code. The project will be hosted at
repo.or.cz in a few days.
Regards,
Martin Doucha
