August has come, and I once again ask for the status of the Fiasco usermode port, as I am eager to try it.
You can check out a working version from our public cvs tree. See http://os.inf.tu-dresden.de/drops/download.html
You'll need the modules "l4" and "oskit" and the Fiasco-UX versions of the kernel, sigma0 and rmgr. They can be checked out from the "fiasco_ux" branch of the l4 module.
Furthermore, I'd like to know if there is/will be any effort to implement the X.2 (upcoming version 4) L4 API building on the Fiasco codebase (that would be quite interesting, since the HURD L4 port will use the X.2/4 API).
The usefulness of X.2 for Fiasco is presently being investigated.

P.S.: If you have trouble accessing the CVS server it is likely due to the problems arising from the flooding that's been happening here last week.
