JNode 0.2.6 has been released. "JNode is a free, open source Java technology based OS written fully in Java language (with a very small assembler nano-kernel). This release features over 99 percent java 6 api compatibility, hotswapping, nfs, hfs+, even more openJDK integration, jetty6 and of course bug fixes and improvements."

Are kind of interesting, both in theory and practice. No wonder you have so many projects revolving around these concepts. Looking forward to see opensource developers succeed in all of their goals in these projects; results so far are promising.

Yeah, there are a lot of things going in their favor...

Integrated security model
Ability to sandbox apps
Component model
Stability/robustness
Strong typing
Reflection/Discovery of interfaces
Metadata
Portable
Flexible
etc

Still, I wonder whether it will go beyond the hobby phase to actually being used. Looks promising.
