Honestly, I'm not to sure. As familiar as I am with NetBSD I'm even
less familiar with Solaris, which is to say, I know very little about
it. I was just suggesting that there might be certain aspects of Real
time support which a novice such as myself might  be able to implement
over SoC while the other aspects could then be implemented afterwards.
But mostly I just wanted to know if such a proposal has any chance of
acceptance.

yes, I noticed and am grateful for the help.
