Can you summarise all this? Why should I use Codezero, again?
Codezero is an operating system that targets embedded systems. It supports the
most fundamental posix calls and modern features such as demand-paging and has a
virtual filesystem layer. Different from other posix-like systems, it is based
on a microkernel design. It has a cleanly separated set of services, it is small
and well-focused. It's design is carefully thought out, so it's not just a
mock-up implementation of an operating system API. It's source code is also
freely available. For these reasons it is a good candidate as systems software
to be used on embedded platforms. Currently it has little or no users, therefore
compared to systems with a saturated user base it is possible to tailor it
rapidly towards the needs of any users who want to be the first to incorporate
it for their needs.
