It's probably not enough interest.

However, the port should be fairly easy. Some time ago, I posted a
port for the Dbox2 hardware, which is also based on the MPC823 CPU.
You can use this as a starting point just by ripping off the DBox2
specific parts (you'd have to convert the device tree to v1 though):

Thanks,
