I have started a mini-project on SourceForge just for the microkernel, called "Bachar". I shall try to get this component done ASAP, and it will stand alone and could be usuable by a lot of people for a variety of projects. I am trying to square the circle of releasing a usable item as early as possible, but at the same time ensuring that it will be of the highest quality. -- Nick Roberts
