The list was derived from previous conversations and a
few things I did over the past two weeks.

Public knowledge:

- 1. Progress has been very good with the latest GRUB2
code. Minor issues exist, but various people are
working together to resolve their issues.
(Dennis/Cyril/others)

- 2. Need software engineers/developers capable of 
porting device drivers and knowing the Genesi people
involved in the relationships with IHVs (see
Matt/Genesi).

- 3. SmartFirmware roadmap. This is the review of the
current code and where is it going for the next
release. Also, how we get more people inlvoved in
understanding its use, documentation, and importance
to this project. (Get Sven's involvement).

- 4. Solaris filesystem layout. This is the review of
the Solaris filesystem. Review of "Solaris 10/11"
documentation and available books online for review.
This was also a review of Belenix and Schillix file
system layouts as well for OpenSolaris (Ken). 

- 5. Review of Apple's latest hardware product
offerings, as well as the Mac Mini and Genesi Pegasos
comparison. Apple's Mac Mini [M9971LL/B] for $699 was
compared with the latest Genesi Pegasos II ODW.
Someone at Apple seems to keep an eye on the Genesi
Pegasos hardware features! (Ken)
