I don't think that importance signifies difficulty.  I know that the Kernel is
the harder
of the two (at least for me so far).  I do agree that the userland is more
important right now.
That is becuase as the userland is ported I feel that momentum on the project
will increase,
and this will get more volunteers to help.

I have been following this list for over a year now, and have seen several
attempts to get this
port going that have all run out of steam.  I don't want this to happen again.
This, and the fact
that I have recently aquired a nice SS20 to work on (traded the 5 and 10), have
really inspired
me to roll up my sleeves and help out.

As an aside: When I get boot2 code ready, will you be able to review it and or
commit it?
It is probably a bit early for this since I am working on figuring out how to
write the image to the
correct magic location on the boot drive, but I am curious as to how I can get
my code into the
CURRENT tree.

Thanks,
