:Is Libcaps the API that will be geared towards doing such things as moving
:implementations of say cd9660 or other file systems or VFS services to 
:userland?
:
:I realize it's not there yet and that the VFS work also hasn't been done but
:I am wondering if this is the purpose of libcaps.

    Not as currently embodied in libcaps.  What I am implementing now is
    a far more generic LWKT based messaging API + namespace rendezvous.
    I wasn't intending on using it for VFS but now that you mention it it
    could probably serve as a basis or, with a little additional work, 
    because the API for that too.
