Now, as far as the OBOS's R1 networking, as I (partially) understand it: -- yes, there will be a net_server (like with BeOS R5) -- no, there won't be "BONE" per se. Although there will be more kernel-mode network code than BeOS R5 had. Of course, that won't affect the networking API or binary-compatibility. -- There will (of course) still be 2 ways to write network code for OBOS: the sockets API and the Net Kit API. -- net_server will still be a user-mode process (as with BeOS R5) however, most of the work it gets done will be delegated to the kernel-mode network stack. (The BeOS R5 network stack ran in user mode as part of the net_server). (???) I think that if I can get that last bullet sorted out (confirmed?), I'll know what to put in the faq. ---j
