Kind of short on details...  Is this going to be some kind of highly
optimized Hyper-V type environment with a customized
Linux kernel?   Is it going to still have full filesystem visibility
from both operating systems?  How?  Will I still be able to run
Window's binaries from a Linux command line?   Will I be able to run
all standard system daemons without hacks?  (i.e.
will init actually be systemd (or at least be replaceable with systemd
or at least some Linux native init)).

[I know you don't know the answers, but that article is pretty vague...]
