I have a broader question. What is the demand for a real-time UNIX-like operating system? I know there are companies such as QNX and OS9 with popular products, which I have experience with both, but my observations have been that demand for others has not been high. In fact, I get the feeling that there has been a decline in demand for this type of operating system. This may seem somewhat off topic, but it questions the value of a real-time FreeBSD project. It may help explain why traffic here is non-existent. Pat Bart Kus wrote: > Is anybody out there?
