What is the general consensus on writing up the paper, some documentation
etc and putting pointers onto the various linux/BSD groups? Seeing how
linux literally exploded into primetime has left me wondering if
something like VSTa (which is desgined to be portable from the start)
could not attract a larger community of programmers/evangelists, (perhaps
a port to the Amiga ;) ) ?

An aside, how big is the kernel? I know QNX 4.2 kernel is around 8 Kb.
