Freeing the Frontier kernel

Good news! Dave Winer tells of the soon to be release of the Frontier kernel. This runs Manila and Radio. Before the days of these two applications I wrote several applications that also ran in Frontier.

Now, I could release these apps, along with the kernel that'd power them. I'll have to look at them again as they're very old. Over four years, and gathering dust in some obscure part of my hard disk.

Whether it'd be worth it? They're primarily concerned with creating and FTP'ing websites. Sure there's content management in there too.

But a business? I don't know. I'll have to think of a niche, a big niche ;-) Perhaps as a vehicle for off line working for MoveableType? As a method of marrying Joe Sixpack's digital images on local disks with galleries on a server, whacked through Photoshop on the way? Or perhaps there are more business end users, certainly they'd be more prepared to cough up some payment.
