I've been getting private mail bounces from you for a while, but this is
the first time I've mentioned it. If you can somehow fix that it would be
great.

I'm assuming the creation of a virtualized kernel is to send messages back
and forth in the VFS layer, correct ? This is the first I've heard of it.
A number of folks I've talked to have wondered what been happening to this
project which is why I'm asking.
