Hello,

With some friends in France, we'd like to write our own micro kernel. The
project has just started (6 month). The main goal is to provide a micro
kernel like Mach or L4. After, it could be possible to write servers to make
a more complete O.S. but at this time, it's not the subject.

For the moment we try to status which microkernel model we gonna to take :
Mach ou make a L4 clone in Ada ..

Opinions ?

bye

Frederic.
