SkyOS The future of SkyOS, the closed-source alternative operating system, had been hanging by a thread for a long time now. Barely any releases, until they came to a grinding halt altogether and Robert Szeleney explained he was pondering the future of SkyOS, and where to take it from here. One of the main problems was a lack of driver support which really made development difficult. Well, this is a problem Szeleney might be able to fix.

It is debatable as to whether XNU resembles anything like that of a Mach kernel given the massive changes Apple have made. Its pretty much become a hybrid (although heavily leaning towards monolithic).
