će biti: "a reliable and easy-to-use GPLed operating system for the home and small office user" kako se predstavlja na svojoj zvaničnoj web strani www.syllable.org. I veliki NewsForge (online magazin za OSS i Linux) predstavio je pridošlicu |
na GPL scenu u svom review-u sa vrlo pozitivnim komentarima Iako je jos u 0.6.1 verziji predviđa mu se lepa budućnost, mada ima komentara koji mu nisu naklonjeni. Svoje korene Syllable vuče od BeOS-a, a u nastavku možete pročitati šta autor ovog OS-a kaže o kernelu na kome je baziran (EN).

What kind of kernel design does Syllable use? As Syllable is a fork of the AtheOS operating system, the author of AtheOS (Kurt Skauen) said "I often ask myself that question too. The kernel is very modular and it has a well-defined interface between the kernel and its device drivers and file systems. |
Given that each component communicates through a thin, well-defined interface and each component does not know much about the others, it resembles a micro-kernel. I am not sure if this is the right term though, since all kernel components live in kernel-space and are not protected from each other, and these are all properties of a monolitic kernel. I am a bit confused :)" In reality, it is easiest to think of Syllable as a monolithic kernel with modular device drivers. Only high-level functions such as the appserver use the client/server model.
