RE:No one cares about micro kernels here...And there you are showing off your ignorance... Currently micro boards are kernel driven... There is usually one board and one kernel... The next era of teck requires mutli boards with their own kernel, which becomes a problem because kernels are statefull, and thus can get you in trouble since they need to be autonomous in order to drive their desire function. All the boards end up being slaves to one kernel.. but in the future, the will be many kernels doing different jobs but there needs to be an OS that is able to accommodate request from multiple kernels to become on full function.....i.m sure i lost you ... But thats not even the shiat you scrape off before getting to the real problem that is solving our current issues in the the real world...nit the world you live in where you think BB should be providing secure management of you dumb house lights ...what an douchebag...
