fast-paced nature of development.
Finally, there are new ideas in literature that would improve systems software
but aren't implemented either because they have no existing users or may break

Finally, POSIX compliance is only a step, or a temporary aim for the Codezero
microkernel. It is not limited to the goal of just complying with POSIX, which
has been done many times by other operating systems. There are new ideas in

because they have no existing users or may break compatibility (e.g. some are
presented in Plan 9). Existing kernels tend to oppose major design overhauls,

Codezero project aims to keep up with the latest OS literature and provide the
opportunity to incorporate the latest ideas in OS technology.
