Just paying my respect for what Oskari pulled off. I tried building my own hobby OS and didn't get nearly this far. I just thought that, like Linux, this UNIX-like OS deserved a name that's closer to the source. For example, Linus originally wanted to name Linux "phreax" but Linux is what stuck after his friend changed the folder name when hosting it for him on an FTP server.
