Hi Brandon,

  Need to work out if I (or anyone else) will have time to mentor a project.

  There's working code but lots remaining to do.

  Well... it's not the intent of BHyVe to be a generic instruction-set 
emulator ala Qemu. Though, I'd like to see it run on other arch's that 
support h/w virt assist.

later

Peter.
