- Having responded privately to Piercarlo and I hope reassured him
- of the purity of our intentions, I would like to take the opportunity
- to point out that we are not only interested in papers on microkernels,
- which of course we are. But we are also extremely interested in papers
- that point out problems with this kind of architecture, things it doesn't
- do well and propose other solutions.
-
- Furthermore, we would like to see some negative results papers.
- The kind of things that looked like they should really work well
- and didn't.
