Things I'm working on Felix and I talked alot during WWDC about the OpenDarwin roadmap. I'm not going to talk about that here, but I will list several projects that will get my attention in the coming months. In no particular order... sablevm - get this freeware java environment working under opendarwin (ppc and x86) and add it to darwinports gnustep - get all of gnustep compiled and working under opendarwin and add it to darwinports modify the src/build/rc.cdrom script so it can properly create HFS+ partitions under x86 create a simple "bless" utility for x86 so opendarwin 7.2x and later can boot more intelligently continue improving the tulip driver to cover more of the original DEC chips finish port of myrinet OSX drivers to IOKit, and test them under opendarwin-x86 create a driver shim for IOKit so we can quickly port free/open/netbsd network drivers to opendarwin create some IOKit examples (template code) for common devices like USB or FireWire refactor tulip driver so it can use an IOPCCard nub just as easily as an IOPCIDevice I'll create a separate page at some point to contain my open projects. That will be a better reference than a blog post, but I wanted to get this out there for comment. 11:24:37 AM    comment []
