JimS said:OpenWatcom is an open source C compiler. Work is ongoing to make it a
C99 compliant compiler. If you'd like to help us achieve that goal,
come over to www.openwatcom.com and join in with the development
effort. I don't think we presently make any claims about being
compliant with C99.
Who is involved in the C99 standard? As I understand it, anyone can
make a submission.
I'm not sure what you mean by a "submission". The C99 standard, as
the name implies, was completed eight years ago. There have been two
Technical Corrigenda since then, incorporated into n1124.pdf
<http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n1124.pdf>. But I
don't believe there's any real work being done on a major new version
of the standard.
If you want more information about the committee, comp.std.c would be
the place to ask. New ideas are often proposed there, but there's no
offical connection between the committee and the newsgroup, and I
doubt that all the members read it.
