fyi - it seems we are the first ones to the table.

@all:
do we have a pad on the arm port, and if not could we create one? I
think this would be useful for finding out how many cards we will need,
who will do what for the port, who organizes the shipping et cetera.

I would also suggest that those interested in maintaining the arm port
join the arm-netbook mailing list so that they are in the loop with all
relevant information without me forwarding everything.

Best,
Andreas

Put in as many people as would be useful to your project. No other distro has come here with interest like you guys so I'd take advantage of that before it changes. 
Didn't you have guys working on a handheld eoma console? Get them in on it as well.
