That is the plan, and I do need help with it, but even if you don't have
a lot of time, I would appreciate if you get familiar with the issues
and advise me so that I don't act alone (aka act stupidly).  So I run
other "alt" projects like the uclibc/musl stuff and hardened, and these
mostly stay out of the way of other projects.  I'd like libressl to do
the same.

I'll put up a page over the weekend.
