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 :-)

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 :-(.?
