My recollection of what it was all about was that it might be a bit limited for a full-up OS. More like an RTK and some device drivers to support an Ada implementation on a bare board. There might be licensing issues as well. I believe it is GPL - don't know the specifics - but it might not be A Good Thing to force any additional work to fall under the GPL. (That's an opinion - others may differ on that.)
