Me too, I would like to help with such a project. One should
recognize that writing a scheduler for a yet to be defined
architecture is not an easy task. IMHO the only useful things to do
at this moment are to get skilled in (1) writing VLIW schedulers and
in (2) planning the use of a simulator (simplescalar?).
