I was one of the interested people who did nothing towards this project, but was interested in doing something and the project well seems to have gone the way of it'll be nijce to have ware. Perhaps it was too ambitious, etc or didn't really have a use. Would we be not able to use that java operating system with Jgnat and code ada into it - I realise there are real time issues. But would not such a system be really good for development. And if the ada code is fully objectified (or as close to damn it), would this not be a more acheivable goal? What did we all want an ada os system for? your thoughts please
