If I can throw my two-cents in here, I'm an embedded RT developer, and I agree with Andrea. RTAI is a very mature, completely open source real time system these days. Regardless of the skill and manpower being leveraged on the RT patch, I gotta say it looks like your re-inventing the wheel by not using the work that's already been done in RTAI. Seems like there is a lot of RTAI speculation going on here. Maybe their list should be CC'd on this thread?
