>And don't I just have my foot in my mouth. :-( Well if you want to hear about -real- emabarassing situations ask me how I first contributed to the devtalk ML back 3 years ago.. or rather, "don't ask". >>In the meantime it seems to me people are sending more or less >>subtle signals, but this is -- seems to me -- for the good >>of the project, to avoid wasted energy... so don't take it personnaly >>or anything if peoeple refer to this approach as a "miracle" for >>instance. > >Miracle? I am not so sure. >I mean - which kit is impossible? As said elsewhere, my (poorly educated) guess is that the "proof of concept" milestone is the app_server. Having it interoperable at runtime. With stock libbe.so and application binaries. Ok I'll stop before sounding like a broken record :-).. The kernel will be interesting too of course, but I don't know my VM from my pointers so cannot comment on it. >And more would be MORE than welcome. Certainly, I think that JBQ, Manuel, you and Travis and the rest of us could get the kernel ball really flying whops quiproquo here, I'm roughly as much kernel savvy as Gloria Estephan; though all others things are not equal: she has this Voodoo doll of Stevie boy which produces amazing effects... cannot compete with that. And it's not just the hysterics (body), she put him through during that infamous M$ conference, but her voodoo dool allows to remotely control the _vocal cords_ folks! Now, _that_ is a nifty trick.
