I'd say you were more than successfull. Your lwkt subsystem is a killer !
Some nobody could implement an alternative dirty #ifdef'd userland scheduler
in less than 100 lines of code and live with it !
That would not have been possible with 4.x.
Or 5.x. Even less I think. Uhm. Not to step on anyone's toes though...

Happy new year in any case !

Cheers
Peter
