And thanks for your really kind offer. The fact that you're following along and commenting is more than enough motivation for me! Once this thing builds I'm hoping it'll be easier for others to contribute too.

First the upstream code has changed too much, so the patches won't apply directly. Second I only want to apply the patches that are absolutely necessary to get the build to complete. Until the code is building it's really hard to parallelise the work, so getting it to build with as few changes as possible is the priority right now.

If there is, I'm guessing it will appear here?

But your demo was very effective: it showed it worked, but also that it's proper bleeding-edge stuff.
