Bdogg is making great progress but it seems like he is the only one will working on this and even he isn't as enthused about putting too much time and energy into this project.

I remember following a couple of the guys at xda trying to get google map navigation to work on other devices other than the Droid. It took them about two days and 20 or so of the users/dev to test out different types of string to fool the app to let navigation work. I know this isn't the same as get a WHOLE os to work on another device but the energy level there are waaay high....
If someone else managed the website that showed the donations, I'd be happy to handle them through paypal. I've done it before. Then we'd only really need to get someone to create a detailed list of what still needs to be done, so we have goals to set/donate to such as getting charging working.

Might even be able to get some Android/tech blogs to feature the initiative.
