Hi Justus,
I liked the cleanup project idea, it gives me a chance to learn gnumach
code while at the same time doing some hopefully useful stuff. But as
you might have guessed this is all new to me so I don't have in
perspective what is the best way to do stuff and how to make things
easier for Samuel and others who maintain gnumach. So thanks for the
valuable advice and feedback, I will have it in mind when I work on the
next patch.
