Just a quick one - I assume all devices on the Yeeloong (ie, wifi) are functional? If so, this would make a nice little terminal...

David's advice is very sensible, I'm sure Bell Labs will be interested
in your work.

That said, it is quite a mouthful, so it may need a bit of digesting.
Here, I think Erik QUantrom (9atom) and the 9front people may be less
reluctant to host your efforts in their distributions.

Myself, I don't have a clean enough Plan 9 distribution of any nature
that will compile your release out of the box, probably through no
fault of your own.  I also have some unorthodox ideas of how I would
go about merging the distributions, but anyone in their right mind
would wait for me to deliver before contemplating the options.

I'll need your help and knowledge to get everything to work on my
Yeeloong laptop, but at this point I'm still trying to find a stable
foundation from which to start.  As soon as I have made some progress,
I'll be in touch.

In the meantime, it may be useful to find out who, besides the two of
us, owns a Yeeloong or any other Lemote kit to experiment with.  Oh,
Stallman doesn't really count.
