Better get yourself an IEEE-1275-1994 specification - you'll be amazed 
how nice the concept is compared to what you know about the official 
ia32 firmware apis. Look at how easy Linux can communicate with OpenFirmware 
on Suns or Apples. It has a clear API, is completely enhancable and due to
the fcode backend, "binary" drivers are completely CPU independant without
recompile. The big chance for complete interoperability and transparency.
