Somehow this reminded me of this post on LKLM: - <odd>.x.x: Linus went crazy, broke absolutely _everything_, and rewrote the kernel to be a microkernel using a special message-passing version of Visual Basic. (timeframe: "we expect that he will be released from the mental institution in a decade or two"). [*] https://lkml.org/lkml/2005/3/2/247 https://lkml.org/lkml/2005/3/2/247 It's really interesting to see Linux getting more and more micro-kernel like features throughout the years.
