My thoughts in no particular order :
After several years, I still can't get over how modular Genode is and how take-no-prisoners no-compromise its policy is re. clean design and best practices. Seeing that kind of dedication keeps me motivated when I feel tired IRL.
I feel exactly the same way.
If I get a chance before the end of 2022, I'll port (or help with porting) some packages, including easy ones like 1) fossil or 2) jam, but especially the fledgling-but-already-awesome 3) V-lang language. Could help with day to day developer life, who knows.
As to my pet project, in the next couple weeks I'm about to wrap up the one-before-last 'ticket' that's a pre-requisite before my software runs on Genode, so it looks like 2022 (can't believe it's 2022 already... time flies) will be the year I can resume selling my software and can scale back the "odd jobs" (freelance website programming etc), which will be nice for sure.
That's very exciting news - please keep us informed!
Not to mention, it'll open the perspective of an 'alternative' desktop for Genode -- though I dare not say I'll get to that before 2023, given my velocity history <g>.
This is very intriguing also. If you need an experimental/alpha tester for this, you know who to ask. :^)
Thanks!
