I agree that this project is hugely ambitious for one man. So was Linux. Linus recruited a bunch of other hobby programmers to help him make it. Although he may be jumping the gun on announcing it, he's got a lot of good ideas about stripping back all the obfuscation that's resulted from 30 years of stacking things onto the same old conventions and wiggling them around until they fit.

I'm sure the idea of building a modern OS that is straightforward and written in a simple, popular language like C (and possibly Python later for higher-level stuff) will appeal to a wide range of people who will all want to help. I'd love to see this project happen, and if the day comes where Gusts is calling for help, I'll be right there in line to help him make this.
