fantastic.  we now have an "excess" of EU Citizens so i put you on the
"spare" list.

ah that's very interesting.  what do you think would be involved?
actually, what could be done - as long as it could also meet the
"Privacy and Enhanced Trust" criteria of NLNet - is to create an
entirely new proposal.

what i would suggest is, we work on one over the next few weeks, to
submit for Dec 1st?

the "privacy" angle should be quite straightforward: we don't want
hackable robotics and AI systems.

some GPIO might need to be very low latency, would that be about right?

also, there will need to be "fast math approximation" opcodes etc.
what kinds of specialist opcodes would be needed?
