We already have at least one application that wasn't in our list of
ideas, so whatever you (or anyone else) have in mind, don't hesitate
and apply - we can't think of all the good ideas anyway :-)
We cannot promise anyone to be chosen, but actually applying would
definitely increase the probability ;-)
Our network stack would need quite a bit of work to make it a good idea
to put it on that kind of hardware, but that's no reason not to port it
now. Likewise, I wouldn't mind seeing Haiku on an iPod or similar
hardware either :)
Bye,
Axel.
