Hi Luther,
Thanks very much for your thoughtful message, which only just reached my
inbox. I see Mort has already replied to a few of your questions, but
to address:
5) Not a deal-breaker, but MirageOS needs a real user guide/manual,
preferably available in pdf, or better yet a book, but not just blogs
as they mostly have now. I would like more documentation beyond
concept-introduction papers too, emphasizing developer-needed
knowledge in actually using MirageOS day to day. Correct me if I am
wrong by pointing out such references. Ultimately a book that also
addressed the above 4 issues as well would be fantastic.
We had some discussion about what such a book (tentatively dubbed the
"MirageOS Handbook") should contain at the most recent hack retreat in
March. The rough-draft table of contents is on GitHub at
https://github.com/mirage/mirage-handbook . Your mail contained an
excellent set of questions, some of which (if answered) could be
chapters themselves.
I wonder whether any of the other contributors would be interested in a
documentation sprint for the Handbook sometime this summer.
Thanks,
Mindy Preston
