It would be nice to get to the point where there is framebuffer nic card keyboard mouse storage/filesystem Getting to the point where you could bootstrap development would be really cool. I am a compsci. Most of my experience is in c/c++ although I did code some scheme for nearly 7 years. I could help out with low level systems stuff with some hand holding. Currently I find myself needing to study up on networking so maybe the ipv4 system? Honestly I've never done much clisp but have always been interested in the language. I'm looking for a project. Do you have any good suggestions?
