Re: ClearSilver and NetBurner

The source isn't in subversion (yet), it was originally in a cvs depo at
one company, and now in a perforce depot at Google.  I've been trying to
convert them both to a single perforce depot, but the perforce to svn
tool isn't nearly as complete as the cvs one, and combining the two
isn't very clear.

There aren't any documents about the internal architecture, but its not
that complicated either.  C code wise, there is the util directory of
"base" code, cs which contains the clearsilver parser, and cgi which
contains the cgi interface to clearsilver.  There's a bunch of extra
code in util that cs doesn't use for things like networking, mutexes and
on-disk storage that are left out by configure if we don't know how to
compile them on the system.
