SQLite is able to carry most of the justification for C itself at this point.

Duplicating the DO-178B certification that it has obtained in an endorsed language will be an incredible burden for any who attempt it.




Ferrocene has said in the past they plan on going for DO-178 in the future.


But we do not plan on rewriting SQLite, that much I can say :)

(My reading is that the GP points to the exemplary achievement that SQLite has reached a close to (security) bugfree, at what I consider a nearly superhuman effort)


That's a good point, I certainly didn't mean to imply that you were!
