Sounds great!

I'll help with at least the HAL component stuff and wherever else I can.
 IIRC, pretty much all of the control for a self-balancing 'bot can be
done stand-alone in HAL as long as there's a way to update a few
settings (like desired speed) from an outside process.

I am also looking forward to using the new messaging stuff with my 3D
printers, but have recently begun working on building a couple new
machines and haven't been spending as much time on LinuxCNC (that will
change as soon as I get the machines running enough to need some control
software).  These machines are non-Cartesian and require trig functions
in their inverse kinematics, so they can't run real-time on an Arduino
controller without pre-processing the gcode.  The two machines I'm
building are a Wally and a Simpson, both from Nicholas Seward's
ConceptFORGE:

I'm not sure the Balanduino will be available in time, but it would make
a good platform if it is.  I'll want to build one of whatever you decide
to go with, so keep me in the loop.

Good luck!  It sounds like a lot of fun!
