it's not too bad if you work from the documents and only
glance at other implementations for the undocumented bits,
and do the name service -- if needed -- by adding an interface to the existing
one instead of including a privately hacked copy of BIND (well,
that's what it looked like to me at the time).
as these things go it's possibly easier and more worthwhile than NFS.
as a protocol it's a bit silly because it mixes everything together.

but coding it? what a ghastly prospect.
I really don't think it would be that bad.
Certainly better than say vga.

i have to agree with russ. start with a simple single threaded
server and then move on. but coding it? what a ghastly prospect.
i guess you could port samba, but that would require a lot of JD
or a hefty supply of anti-emetics.
