Hope you don't mind... Out of my reply I have clipped a great many adresses. I would imagine Alan Cox and Linus Torvalds are very busy men and don't need my chatter :) - and the Debian-user list is the only one I am on that even seems mildly aprorpriate (btw sending it to multiple redhat adresses is kind of bad form IMHO)

Please consider this. I have a feeling you will find most of this is already being worked on in one way or another. Have you researched these (I havn't I must admit) but...there seem to be linux projects for everything else under the sun (and even On SUNs ;) )? How far along is current work in the area? If you want people to help... you could at least provide a pointer for where to get started ;) -Steve -- /* -- Stephen Carpenter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --- <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>------------ */ E-mail "Bumper Stickers": "A FREE America or a Drug-Free America: You can't have both!"
