I could think a way of using Lego Mindstorms platform for generating Cortex-32 executables (but maybe it's a lack of knoledgement of mine, do not have idea). Can you think a way for it? It could be a good option.
I like Luke's too, it looks that Tamp (the microkernel he talked about) provides a good learningship.
