I'd also note capros doesn't fit that description either. I don't know that there were examples that ran more than a single process.

That's probably not true, for anything relying on drivers since user mode drivers are basically processes there... but in the way that people might think of a process.

I mean, there isn't exactly a thriving ecosystem of existing software built for CapROS. Right now I don't think anybody even has CapROS itself building.

The problem has gotten a lot easier since the EROS days, thanks to Xen, QEMU, UEFI (?), and the explosion of cheap hardware, but it looks like maybe Charlie got sick or lost interest or something?

Yeah, I did see a email on a capabilities list from him about him no longer working on it because of lack of feedback & wanting to just enjoy his retirement. That was the impression I got.

When he had resumed his work on it, I personally had been going through a back injury. I still feel bad that I didn't get a chance to contribute any of the hardware ports and software I wrote for it.
