There are several things in it done +in a way that I would never label "release quality". Some things are not +even in the *structure* I would like them to be. An example for this is +the current handling of errno values: It needlessly introduces dependency +on PDCLib (because I use non-standard values), and the values are placed +in the wrong header (_PDCLIB_int.h instead of _PDCLIB_glue.h where they +would be more appropriate). + +But at some point during the development toward the v0.5 release, I found +that my current PDCLib work schedule simply does not allow me to wait +until every piece of is as I would like it to be. It would +probably take another year or two, and my patience is UP. + +I want this released, and I want to think about something else but + for some time. + +So, expect significant change to how stdio is done in upcoming releases. +Everything *WILL* be stable by the time v1.0 comes around, but until then +you will have to accept that I can only deliver "hobby quality" for now.
