OK. There has been a lot of discussion on TinyRTEMS this week so I
am not going to repeat any of that.  It's Friday and I am tired. :)

Some suggestions.  You are proposing an lpc2138 BSP.  So I see
a few obvious tasks in your proposal:

+ BSP for real hardware
+ BSP runs on Skyeye simulator

 From a TinyRTEMS perspective, there are lots of ideas and you will have to
decide which tickle your fancy. 

How much memory is available on your target hardware?
Do you have any display option?  If so, consider adding Microwindows/Nano-X
support to your proposal.

The student proposal deadline is approaching soon but you still have time
to make a proposal.  I think there are guidelines at the SOC site on what
outline to follow.  SOC has a schedule and your proposal should track that
with activities in stages that make sense based upon that.

Maybe one of the others can post some helpful links.
