Wow...Fabrice, things are going far now...our dream is coming true! :)
Is anyone working on the software MMU?

I don't really know. Bochs VBE could be a good starting point, but 8bpp 
is a bit low in order to use graphical operating systems. VMware is 
commercial, and qemu could become an enemy for them, license problems 
will likely be noticed and stopped. So Intel could be the best 
choice...
