[JOS-Kernel] [agenda] Clear separation of kernel and virtual machine

[Gilbert Carl Herschberger II]

We should discuss the development of a "JOS Kernel Specification". What
should a standard JOS kernel include? Does a monolythic kernel/virtual
machine meet that standard?

About CjOS
I believe it is important to maintain a clear separation of kernel and
virtual machine. Clear separation is required to build a cross-platform
virtual machine that runs on JOS, Linux and Windows kernels. Clear
separation is required to build a virtual machine as a plug-in for a
re-usable JOS kernel.

A CjOS-compatible virtual machine uses the standard C library as an
interface to the kernel. It works on Linux and Windows. When the CjOS
kernel implements the standard C library, a CjOS-compatible virtual machine
will run on CjOS kernel.
