Yeah. I'm on the fringes of that port effort, and it is *not* trivial;
Satellite is umpteen thousand lines of code with an Oracle dependency
in about every tenth one. Don't imagine that you should try to do it
yourself. But Spacewalk is a fully open-source effort (there were some
legal/IP reasons why Satellite wasn't :-() and they could use more hands.
If you want that to go faster, please feel free to join in and help.
