private desktop operating system.

Can you create a Version for normal private user? then it would be an alternative to Linux/Unix

Native Database

How about including JavaDB with Jnode 0.3
It would run in the client server mode, start at the startup and the OS would have a native database.
How about a Jnode--->Accessories--->Addressbook menu entry and the application bundled with Jnode 0.3

Also can we study the feasibility of storing most OS settings in JavaDB instead of flat files like in linux or ini files in windows.

With the in memory database feature, I am sure this would be a very fast way to access all setings and the user interface would be very fast rather.

With 2 GB RAM being a standard nowdays and RAM prices in general falling down, I guess very soon 8-16 GB RAM could be possible on home desktops/laptops and thus caching settings data or any frequently accessed data using in memory database would greatly improve speed of the GUI and the OS as a whole.

Boot from USB memory stick

Hi
Is it possible to make a bootable JNode USB ?

apache.org open source java programs

there are alot of java projects on apache.org site has anyone considered the integration of these java realted projects

why does JNode need to implement VM itself?

It can only make a bootable JVM layer to adopt so many kind of opensource's VM like jikesRVM, openJDK and Harmony etc. so we provide opportunity to compile on the fly and to change VM on the fly !-)
remember the JNode goal:
The goal is to get an simple to use and install Java operating system for personal use. Any java application should run on it, fast & secure!

Making VM itself doesn't make any effort on this goal. anyway, I don't prefer to implement VM in its main branch. It's not what Jnode should be. Anyone interest in VM could start a subproject and get involve in it.
