Okay, with Brent there are 3 of us so far. How about
Hamish? What's the agenda? Plans:: how about some
concrete outline of what parts of Linux (or the outer,
wrapper parts of Linux we'd like to port to BSD?
Anybody have any thoughts on this?
My aims are, briefly, to port all the Linux *drivers*
to FreeBSD (or BSD). This probably is possible; but
is it worth the weeks of effort/driver? And, considering
all the substandard (crappy!) hardware, is this even
wise?
What other Linux-esque type ports make sense? The STREAMS
clone code, various filesystems (journaled, &c), and
whatever else? Libraries:: does it make any sense whatever
to mess with glibc; merge the GNU libraries with the Berkeley
libs?
As I said before, this seems like a super Project; but also
mega-huge....
Feedback?
