local open source project looking for help porting to Cygwin

[bob 295]

The local SIMPL open source project (http://www.icanprogram.com/simpl) is 
emboldened by its recent success in adding a PHP interface and a Mac port to 
its family.  

The SIMPL project began over 10 years ago with the aim to bring the 
Send/Receive/Reply (QNX style) messaging to the Linux developer.   A SIMPL 
application consists of two or more interacting SIMPL modules which can be 
written in C, C++, Python, JAVA, Tcl/Tk and now PHP.  SIMPL modules with 
different languages can be mixed in a given SIMPL application.   SIMPL 
modules in a given application can be run on a single network node or 
dispersed on several nodes often without even a recompile.   Up until 
recently a SIMPL network had to contain at least one Linux node.  With the 
Mac port this changed.

It is time to go the distance to a (cough) Windows/Cygwin port.

The SIMPL core code was able to compile without significant changes on the Mac 
which tells us that it is pretty standards compliant.   Our project team has 
a Linux heritage so we don't have a lot of Windows and/or Cygwin expertise 
(or even systems to try stuff on).

If anyone is interested in helping out with the Windows/Cygwin port please 
contact me offlist or on the SIMPL project mailing list.

Thanks.
