> Hey, I'm just wondering what's up with DJGPP's developement?

Then go to
http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/mail-archives/browse.cgi?p=djgpp-workers
and browse through the djgpp-workers mailing list.

It's still being developed.  Are you complaining that nothing's broken?  ;-)

limits.h is still the correct one, according to ANSI.  If not, then I
wasn't aware that the C specs had changed recently.

Either that or you have a different definition of "modern" than the
rest of us.

Yup.  DJGPP is very stable.

Not they, *we*.  You sent this to the djgpp forum.  Did you expect
that the djgpp developers wouldn't be here?

We are not planning any releases any time soon.  Nothing is broken,
really, and what few new features we have haven't added up to a
release yet.  If you really want the latest, you can get the
development version out of CVS.
