I've read the message. Alas, I need to find some spare time and fresh motivation to start creating something to play with. My ideas are along an emulator for the GUI written in Java (because I know Java better then QT or MFC) and a kernel written in C/C++.

To create a kernel is a huge task. To summarize what we need as a minimum:

1. C++ wrappers for decNumber
2. A runtime engine (opcode layout and such)
3. A display driver with font handling
4. A keystroke assembler/compiler for internal code
5. Memory management for various object types
6. Object editors (matrices and alike)
7. ...
   

The year I worked on the WP 34S project I was basically laid off and thus had some more time left then nowadays.
