- Let's starts  "100% pure" <whatever language> campaign :-)

- I vote "kernel"

- So UniOS is going to be a binary standard ? Hmm.  I think everything
could very easily be implemented usign existing binary object formats like
Java class objects and the ELF object format, and on a
intra-address-space object model like COM. We don't need to use new
object formats to implement new ideas.
