Well the parts all the way to M2-Planet are done and verified on the virtual machine https://github.com/oriansj/stage0
We however need to write a portable POSIX to remove Linux from guix's bootstrap (Ideally buildable via M2-Planet and discussion on what route is ongoing) Then implement the design on FPGA via http://www.clifford.at/icestorm/ Finally I'll have to convince my wife to let me spend $10K to implement the design in hardware using: https://libresilicon.com/ (But at least I'll have plenty of free chips to share with the world) >This should be great. :-) That is the plan but we really could use more scheme programmers.
