Sorry, my plate is full but I'm sure there are lots of people who will
help. Try getting some of the Linux people involved. Since this emulator
will be running on Linux you will need at least one person who has a good
understand of the guts of a Linux system. I think there is a book on Linux
Internals. It should be interesting on how you resolve the BSD/GPL
licensing issues with a FreeBSD emulator running on a Linux system. 

Put up a mailing list and a web page. Get yourself a scratch monkey of a
machine and you are on your way.
