Tom Maher at CMU was working on the port -- his address is tardis@watson.org. Last I checked with him, userland stuff generally worked well, especially the server, but the kernel module hadn't really been looked at. The most similar kernel module is probably the Darwin module, but there are some locking and reference counting differences due to the point at which the Darwin VFS was forked from ours.
