The architecture looks pretty good. Hope you can bring
it to completion.
One comment. I am concerned about calling it AdaOS. At
present, anything with the name Ada in it is likely to be
ignored by the larger audience you would hope to gain.
The published product would do well to stand on its own,
support languages besides Ada, and have a name that
makes Ada less of an explicit issue. In time, people
concerned with the technology will realize that it is
written in Ada, while those who simply want to get
some work done will use it without any knowledge
of its underlying implementation.
Meanwhile, if this project gets to the point where we can
see it becoming a reality, some of us ought to get busy
writing applications for it. The only way it will become
popular is if real people use it. Those real people will
need spreadsheets, word processors, etc.
