So what kind of specifications would a new library attempt to meet? What
language should it be written in? What set of features should it
provide? Its
such a core and integral library that I can't imagine noone in the world
wouldn't step up to the challenge of building a better mousetrap. And with a
concrete proposal, a company may fund some or all of the work.

Better to make c-client become legacy, than to have it still be the
only game in
