This sounds a bit different from the story that Martin told (cf. his
message from October 24 with Message-ID:
<[email protected]>).

Is the intention that the base-hw remain experimental?  Or, is the
long-term plan to make it a proper microkernel?  From what you say
here, it sounds like I shouldn't consider base-hw as a potential
microkernel.  Martin, however, seems to suggest it will become a
viable target in the near future.


Thanks,

:) Neal
