There are three -goals to this project worth noting: - -o Binary compatability with 4.4 BSD, and other U*x or U*xish systems - on other hardware where appropriate, convenient, and consistent with - the design; - -o Posix compliance (in combination with the GNU C Library and the GNU - C Compiler); and - -o Ease of use as well as several new features and functionality. - - -I am interested in constructive criticism on the interfaces, design, -and implementation from experts in the field of OS research and design -consistent with the above goals. Advice from seasoned U*x hackers is -especially welcome. - -We have a mailing list for discussion. Currently there is little -discussion on the group; the major contributors to the ideas behind -the design all live in the Boston area at this point, and work has -been done via face-to-face communication. I would like to open the -field of discussion to a broader base, both to get wider dissemination -of the ideas behind the current design, as well as to get a greater -breadth of criticism. Periodic postings are currently made to the -mailing list containing a snapshot of the interfaces used by the -various pieces of the system. I would like to see discussion as well; -perhaps we need a critical mass to get this. - -Interested individuals should send me email. I don't regularly read -the newsgroups to which this message is posted. - - -[U*x is an abbreviation for a well-known trademark of AT&T. :-)] - - -mib - |
