The goal is to create a set of powerful tools for managing at least one desirable virtualization scenario. One possible starting point could be the [[hurd/subhurd]]/[[hurd/neighborhurd]] mechanism, which allows a second almost totally -independant instance of the Hurd in parallel to the main one. The current -implementation has serious limitations though. A subhurd can only be started by -root. There are no communication channels between the subhurd and the main one. -There is no mechanism for safe sharing of hardware devices.
