  If you think she can see into the future, shouldn't you be asking something
more interesting than whether cygwin will ever support rlimit, like what next
week's lottery numbers will be or how long you'll live?  ;-)

  Otherwise, http://cygwin.com/acronyms#SHTDI and
http://cygwin.com/acronyms#PTC apply here.  I imagine it should be possible to
use a windows job object to implement it.

    cheers,

There are no plans to implement it in the near future.

  Are contributors asked to sign any paper?

  If I contribute it, will my name appear in the .cc file? Must my
e-mail appear with my name?

Yes, see http://cygwin.com/contrib.html, especially the "Before you
get started" section.  For Cygwin and the Cygwin tools the copyright
for your code changes has to be assigned to Red Hat.

>   If I contribute it, will my name appear in the .cc file?

Your choice.  I, for one, don't put my name into the source files
anymore.

>    Must my e-mail appear with my name?

Your name and your email address appear in the ChangeLog files.

You might want to peruse: http://cygwin.com/contrib.html

If you are making a change to an existing file then I don't think it is
appropriate to add your name.  With maybe a couple of exceptions we just
haven't done that.  Sometimes people add their names to new files but if
the file is part of the Cygwin DLL and not a standalone app, I don't
think it makes sense to personalize it.

  I'm, slowly, implementing it. I plan to post the papers tomorrow,
after my implementation work fine.

  Nice one!  If you need any advice or help finding your way round the source
code, you might find the cygwin-developers list is a lot quieter and more
focused on low-level topics than this list.
