At this stage, it is difficult to answer Yes or No if i am going to write
drivers. We have to evaluate on each area the necessary effort, competence
and time needed. I have some experiences on developping software for QL and
Motorola assembler coding (much more on Unix and windows platforms) but
nothing on the hardware. So, i can consider my contribution if pertinent
and possible.
I completely aggree that involving Nasta would render things easier.

Exactly. Are you going to write the drivers then (8-)#
The hardware issues are not going to be trivial (for all aspects of the
design) but the *real* difficulty is going to be finding people to write
both the firmware (logic chips) and drivers. That will be the
make/break. If Nasta were to be involved, then a great number of the
hardware issues would be addressed.
