I'm also quite interested in what compsci students can do for the kernel project. I'm currently doing a little embedded development and research at school, but I and a few others would jump at the chance to work on the kernel (besides finding duplicate problems that the x86 merge is already taking care of, of course. ;)
Also (as an aside), we're looking at redoing our operating systems curriculum out here at school...anyone aware of (relatively good) OS curricula? (time scope: one semester.)
