Ethan,
	Sorry for not getting in touch for so long (I wasn't kidnapped by
aliens like poor andy!).  I have been going through the kernel VFS code a
little bit and I know how to approach some of the issues like keeping track
of open files, path walking etc.  For the most part, I was thinking that
what you wanted to achieve was like a subset of the kernel.  so, the
construction can be quite similar, albeit much more condensed.  Many of the
structures that I was going to use(and some functions) would be based on the
kernel's.  However, this would mean that whatever license you choose for
this project has to be GPL compatible.  It's probably premature because not
one line of code has been written yet, but I wanted to get a confirmation
from you that it will be so.  I know it's your project, so you have the
final say.  
Please let me know.
Ajay
