So, you get a nice virtual computer if you combine the I/O and compute capabilities of standard browsers with a host-independent, globally distributed, transactional and secure file system.
Revc gives most of the file system and UIOS (remember that?) spells out most of its API. A nice os for this emergent Internet-as-computer can be built out of a message-passing infrastructure. UFLDR (remember that?) is a nice router/buffering-system for messaging infrastructure. The performance characteristics of this environment are weird compared to workstations but useful nonetheless. There's *so* much to do in this direction. -t _______________________________________________ Gnu-arch-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-arch-users GNU arch home page: http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/gnu-arch/
