Honestly, this seems rambling and unfocused. It's like a grab-bag of recent-ish buzzwords. The task that has been set is gigantic. Despite that, they've decided to make it even harder by designing a new programming language on top of it (this seems to be all the work done to date). The hardware challenge alone is quite difficult. I don't know why that isn't the focus at this stage. It is as-if the author is suggesting that only the software is a problem, when some of the biggest issues are actually closed hardware. Sure, Linux is not ideal, but its hardly relavent in comparison. I think this project suffers from doing too much abstract thinking without studying existing concrete realities. I would suggest tackling one small piece of the problem in the hardware space, or building directly on some of the work others have done. I don't disagree with the thesis of the project, but I think it's a MUCH bigger project than the author suggests and would/will require a concentrated effort from many groups of people working on many sub-projects. |

Whether the project is bigger than I think or not is not so relevant for me personally, I will attempt it because I don't see a future in personal computing that I want to be a part of otherwise.
