Philippe,

It's been great to work with you on Xenomai when my work has allowed me to do 
so. I really hope that we can stay in touch and continue to work together in 
the future. I suspect at some point some of the folks in the PPC circles I 
work with are going to have an interest in trying out EVL. I'm especially 
hopeful the end result will be one where a casual user can contribute without 
having many different contexts to keep track of in their heads. ;)

Have a Merry Christmas. I hope your kid is back to being a soccer star by now. 
;)
