If google wishes to offer fair terms for this type of challenge, count me in. I've already done quite a bit of android hacking with the G1 Qualcomm gave me. It looks to me like the move off wakelocks (and possibly binders) can be contained to some small glue changes in bionic and some of the java classes.
I'd suggest reasonable terms be that if we get this working acceptably (meaning comparable battery life to the existing 2.6.29 implementation), Google would commit to moving to the upstream kernel we produce and integrating the necessary changes (whether ours or rewritten ones) into the android user code.
