Why not GNU Mach?
OSKit-Mach, in short, is
GNUmach
- old drivers (Linux 2.0)
- old unneeded stuff
+ OS-Kit-drivers (Linux 2.2) for the drivers <-- the Good Thing
So OSKit-Mach is nothing completely new, but rather somthing like a
branch of GNUmach. But it needs time to mature, as big parts were
replaced. That's why we have two Machs.
