Subject: What would you like to see most in minix?
Summary: small poll for my new operating system

Hello everybody out there using minix -
I'm doing a (free) operating system (just a hobby, won't be big and professional
like gnu) for 386(486) AT clones. This has been brewing since april, and is
starting to get ready. I'd like any feedback on things people like/dislike in
minix, as my OS resembles it somewhat (same physical layout of the file-system
(due to practical reasons) among other things).
I've currently ported bash(1.08) and gcc(1.40), and things seem to work. This
implies that I'll get something practical within a few months, and I'd like to
know what features most people would want. Any suggestions are welcome, but I
won't promise I'll implement them :-)
Linus (torvalds@kruuna.helsinki.fi)
PS. Yes -- it's free of any minix code, and it has a multi-threaded fs. It is
NOT protable (uses 386 task switching etc), and it probably never will support
anything other than AT-harddisks, as that's all I have :-(.

Tja, so kann man sich täuschen. :p Nur 20 Jahre später ist Linux einer der flexibelsten und am weitesten verbreiteten Kernels der Welt - in Millionen von Smartphones, Routern und anderen Appliances, Servern, über 90% der Top-500-Supercomputern, und sogar ein paar Desktops. :)

Danke an Linus Torvalds und die Kernelhacker (für Linux), Bill Gates (dafür, dass PCs zum leistbaren Massenprodukt wurden und sich Linus 1991 einen 386er kaufen konnte) und Richard Stallman (für GNU und die GPL).

Ich find' jetzt grade kein passendes Archiv um zu bestaetigen oder zu belegen, aber wenn ich mich recht erinnere, kam die erste Antwort auf Linus' Posting damals uebrigens von einem Oesterreicher :)

Tolle Sache einfach! Ohne Linux, GNU und der GNU Toolchain bin ich mir ziemlich sicher, dass ich mich niemals mit der Entwicklung von Software befasst hätte. :)
