I'm happy you found my patch quite interesting! I, just as you, think the
kernel could be simplified quite alot.
Actually my goal was initially to reduce size and overhead but I when I
decided to add proportional timeslicing the goal changed.
Your modifications seem to be what I've been looking for.
Could you give me a link?
Do you know the status of the sensor handling rewriting? I've seen according
to the TODO file that this should be done similair to the dat4 project.
