New NeXTStep / OSX Based OS
billy_gates:
Jimmy, The Quirk, Psyjax, and I have decided that it is time for a linux based OS to drop its linux heritage. Look at our ideas here:

(note from Orethrius: link is dead, no forwarding address)
I will add a more official list later when I have time, but this is just a quick verbal sketch of what we want.
billy_gates:
bringing it to the top
suselinux:
Is this only going to run on PPC chips?
or do want it to be like linux and cover many architectures?
Even if it can't run Mac Programs I think an OS setup like OSX would be great
Refalm:
It doesn't matter if it has a Darwin core. Darwin is also ported to x86 by Apple, so that doesn't matter.
billy_gates:
we plan on x86 first.
The only problem with starting with darwin is that it doesn't run on AMD CPU's.... yet.
