   I've been working on the Vertical blanking period interrupt *server*
and I have made a couple of assumptions about this.  I'd like to check
this out with some more experienced types.

  1)  I have assumed that I am allowed to do a ReplyMsg during the
      server routine (to complete the I/O request).

  2)  I am allowed access to the user's data space during the routine in
      order to write the input event to the user's data buffer (clearly
      works now but has implications should process data space eventually
      become protected).  Are messages and I/O requests required to be in
      shared memory?

Advance Thanks!
More questions to follow, I'm sure.
