HN comment orderAh, HelenOS. The popular MSc thesis factory at my old school. Good times. edit: just look at all the theses that were made out of it. :) http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:geWe63M...
http://www.helenos.org/wiki/FAQ I find the FAQ to be more enlightening than this page. It explains what it is used for (OS research research in Charles University, Prague) and how it is different than other operating systems (genode, minix, hurd).
What could be an appropriate use case for this OS at its current state?
