Seeing as how the FreeVMS userspace will be OpenVMS-compatible regardless of the kernel architecture, I am very open to suggestions regarding the kernel's design. At the moment, I aim to make it a hybrid kernel (monolithic with loadable modules while also providing a userspace interface), but if anyone can provide enough reasoning otherwise with regards to OpenVMS compatibility I will change the architectural plans for the kernel.

	I have uploaded new release on freshmeat. Thanks a lot.

	I think that we have to talk about dark side of this project. You have 
done some stuff, but there is no documentation to help you. With a 
centralized documentation, I think we should make more development. We 
need to assign tasks to contributers too. For example, I have not time 
enough to try to understand your development, but I have some time to 
write some subroutines or libraries. I think we can find some new 
contributers if we can propose different tasks. That beeing said, I 
think we have to analyze differences between both kernels to merge these 
kernels if it is possible.
