A little of both actually, I plan to submit all work we do on the kernel
back into the Darwin CVS as Intel compatibility work, as well as to the
Winmac CVS (so put your name in whatever you change so you get credit for
it).  The additional work we do on the GUI and Mac compatibility code will
be independent.

At the darwinfo site, I found a link on the status of darwin kernel on 
intel. Does winmac project aims to extend/comlete that work or is it 
something independant?
