I've talked to Linus about merging the changes into his mainstream
kernel tree, and he's agreed, but only once our kernel actually does
something.  I agree with this.

It's very difficult to suggest a timeline to a project that's done only
on volunteer time, so I don't think anyone's ready to commit to a
schedule.  

My feeling is we'll address the kernel merge once we have a kernel to
merge.  A LOT of the architecture ports had their own seperate tree for
many years.  MIPS, for instance, has only just merged.
