preemption support
Is anyone interested in working on adding pre-emption support to the ia64 linux kernel? I think it would be nice to have that option. The mechanics of making the kernel pre-emption safe are fairly straight-forward (see preempt* macros in 2.5). The hard part is of course finding all the places that need to be protected.
Don, perhaps this should be added to the todo list?

I am interested -- and will start on it when I've got large file system support out of the way.

Bad move Peter, this means I'll make you responsible for this on the ToDo list :-)
