Following up on my prior note regarding running the Genode OS on Risc-V.. Bunnie's blog states "*The RISC-V supervisor spec exists but has not been publicly released yet*" http://www.bunniestudios.com/blog/?p=4083
So I gather that there still might be some time for a potential collaboration between the the Genode OS camp and Dr. Patterson's Risc-v group http://www.eecs.berkeley.edu/Faculty/Homepages/patterson.html?...
That is, as I understand it Genode Labs http://www.genode-labs.com/ would love to work/co-design with an open source CPU design group, such that the CPU's supervisory hardware interfaces with minimal complexity to the Genode process protection model??
Do I have that right?

Dear Norman and fellow Genodians..
Taking note of Johanne's efforts to bring up the Genode OS to run on the LEON_3 CPU http://www.gaisler.com/index.php/products/processors/leon3... prompted me to do a little catching up. Risc-V http://riscv.org/ the current very promising state of Open source CPU core design.... here is the current state of Risc_V's software tool chain http://riscv.org/download.html#tab_tools...
..it seems we might want to think about how Genode's tool chain support could evolve to handle this fairly promising open Risc platform.... such that as lowRISC http://www.lowrisc.org/ come's into it's existence, running Genode on it might be just the ticket.
