i really appreciate the effort in constructing this list.

However, there are huge differences among the projects in this
list. Some are well established and have working and supported
piece of code (PAO, SMP, some multimedia stuff), some are in
development, some other look more like a wishlist and have been
around for years without any progress at all (in this category may
mention ports to Alpha and Sparc, Token Ring, maybe also documentation,
and some of the hacks available from my web page)

In order to avoid confusion, i suggest to classify items depending
on their status (and the availability of working code or a clean
patch for 2.2.X or 3.0 is a useful metric that should not offend
anyone).

	cheers
