I would be interested in helping with an effort to implement kernel
threads/LWP and then provide an implementation pthreads that multiplexes x
user threads onto n LWPs (sort of like Solaris 2.x). A kernel threads
implementation could be extremely useful in future Linux/SMP releases in
terms of scalability.

If anybody else is interested e-mail me, I have a couple of friend who don't
read this list that might also be motivated to help.
