Antonio,

Excellent!

If you are willing to donate your personal time freely to Linux then Kernel Labs
are willing to assist by shipping a Kinect unit to you.

Let me be clear, Kernel Labs have no commercial interest in this project. We
simply like to encourage Linux media projects where possible. Projects like this
are good for Linux and thus good for the community.

My only requirement is that you post regular project status emails to this
mailing list so we can all benefit from your thoughts, rants, any problems or
comments on the project! :)

Drop me a private email if you're interested.

Regards,

- Steve
