• Updated Goals for the Project

  I have updated the goals for the project: # Create a fully operational operating system that is built around a lightweight, fast Java virtual machine mechanism(JamVM, JikesRVM). # Initially, applications will be built around Java and the scripting environment Jython(Python on Java) # Create a stable operating system around modern technology and current software development efforts. # (Current Design Methodology) Slow and Steady: First milestone includes support for running applications off the filesystem. Yes, Java, I hope this won't deter any interest. I am building a system around Java because it has a lot of use and from an idealistic standpoint, is really not a bad technology. If you ignore speed and startup issues, and just look at garbage collection, write once, run anywhere, and the virtual machine, java is really interesting, hence its popularity. So, one of the goals is to implement an open source virtual machine on top of this project. This is a long-term goal, but I don't want to hide this from you. ** Milestone: Our first milestone should be to run an application off the filesystem, any simple application.
