I'd be very interested in a Zaurus port, although in my case it would be the SL-C3200 that I would be cheifly interested in. I have been porting a desktop linux distro to it but keep running into trouble, particulaly with the complexities of gcc and other bloated stuff. I guess porting a Linux distro to a machine designed for Linux is on a different level to porting an operating system, but if I can help with anything I'd like to.
