I like the idea of an Ada RTOS - although others have been built. (Might be better to start from something like RTEMS & build on it?) There are also various realtime Linux implementations one might learn from. At least one implementation I have heard of runs a single realtime process and then coughs up any leftover CPU time to run the rest of Linux. I hear it works pretty well and provides a basis for an OS that does something Windows doesn't do. You've got to think of why anyone would want an Ada OS besides the fact that it is implemented in Ada.
