I did have a look at it and I would like to express my full encouragements to yours efforts. Finally somebody out there caring about modularization of the kernel, who doesn't continuously introduce sick stuff like...
We remember:
1. Highjacking System V IPC for autoloader communication.
2. "Persistant module storage" patches, which destabilize the kernel.
3. inter_module* idiocy.
4. Overloaded system calls. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
