digitalmars.D.announce - PowerNex - The Userspace update! (also first birthday)

Hey!

To celebrate the first birthday[1] of PowerNex, my D kernel, I've 
made a new release.
This is a big release compared to the old one, because this one 
contains a userspace
mode where you can load and execute ELF executable. I've also 
implemented TLS so
userspace programs don't need to spam __gshared all over the 
place.

If you want to download a precompiled ISO or read more about this 
release you can go to
this github release page: 
https://github.com/Vild/PowerNex/releases/tag/v0.2.0

The project is fully open source and located at 
https://github.com/Vild/PowerNex under the MPLv2 license.

All feedback is appreciated.

Kudos to you. I need to try this. Mh, do we have Linus 2.0 up there?

Congratulations!! It definitely looks promising, even though I really do not like the coding style, but that is just a matter of taste I guess.

:) The coding convention is not the official Dlang type. I feels same way too.
