Ok, I forgot to mention this in my last post, but I'm afraid I'll have
to warn all of you that want to implement a new feature: I will not
accept big non-localized patches to 0.12.  This doesn't mean you cannot
implement something neat, but it does mean that it probably won't be in
0.13 unless it's so neat I cannot live without it. 

There are good reasons for this: I'll have to do some studuing that I
missed the last semester due to working on linux, and the courses start
tomorrow.  That was one of the reasons for the fixed release-date of the
current version. 

Also, VFS support (which is missing in 0.12, although there were
alpha-patches for it) will probably be implemented for 0.13, and I need
a relatively clean kernel for that: as pmacdona found out, the patches
that get in put after other patches have to be extensively edited to
fit.

This does NOT mean that I won't accept bug-reports and patches.  Also,
it doesn't mean I won't accept the init/login package: I assume that
won't touch the kernel very much.  I hope this won't be a big problem:
most of the things people wanted are in 0.12.  And with VFS we'll
eventually get the longer filenames that was also high on the list of
wanted things.
