Fortunately, given how far along the Rev Linux engine is, it doesn't 
seem it'll come to that.

Regardless of the opportunities or lack thereof one may see with the 
world's fastest-growing OS, Rev is already so close to having a really 
good engine for Linux that it would cost them much more to abandon it 
than simply finish it.

RunRev have characterized the iPhone engine as a separate development 
track from the desktop engines.  I have to trust Kevin on this when he 
says the team can do both, and since I use Rev on my Ubuntu-powered 
machine almost daily I can report that warts and all it's coming along 
very well.
