I'm in SoC 2010 again with a different project and there's still BSD grep from SoC 2008. I'm also fixing the last nits of that. And there are also personal things, like a one-year internship in Portugal, which is going to start in September. But I hope once I'll find time or this. > And are you aware of any plans on adding utf8-aware regex?

GNU regex allows things like [a|], which is not standard, so we should support them to maintain compatibility. This will be important for ports. This is also the reason why BSD grep is linked to GNU regex instead of libc-regex. -- Gabor Kovesdan FreeBSD Volunteer EMAIL: gabor@FreeBSD.org .:|:. gabor@kovesdan.org WEB: http://people.FreeBSD.org/~gabor .:|:. http://kovesdan.org
