There is one programmer who hacked the kobo wifi for awhile with some temporary help from kobo people. He's on here too but he says he gave up as, although the kernel is open source and many libraries are equally so, the main programs are not and are not open standards. It would require too much reverse engineering too much hacking and he didn't have any more time for it. He got some stuff customized and running but nothing at the level of being able to alter text interpretation.
I don't know anything about the most special kobo specific central programs on the touch.
His story is here:
