OSDEV group

The idea of this project is concentrate tools, documentations, design ideas, essays, discussions and so on, related to operating system development.

Every contribution must be reviewed

I know several fellas interested in developing toy/research operating systems, hack some existing kernel, write device drivers or simply learn low level things. With this project we can reuse each other tool, ask if someone already tried some crazy idea, request a code review, start a collaborative project, and so on.

At least, we'll learn and stay in touch!
