Thats true. The current CKRM CPU scheduler is not a standalone
component...if it were made one, it would need a non-CKRM interface to
define classes, set their shares etc.

However, we have not investigated the possibility of making our CPU
scheduler a pluggable one that could be loaded into a kernel equipped
with the plugsched patches AND the CKRM framework. This should be
possible but not a high priority until there is more consensus for
having CPU schedulers pluggable at all (we have more basic stuff to fix
in our scheduler such as load balancing).

Of course, we're more than happpy to work with someone willing to chip
in and make our scheduler pluggable.
