The 22.02 release is dominated by three topics, the tightening and restructuring of the code base, device-driver infrastructure, and the transition of Sculpt OS towards a versatile toolkit for building specialized operating-system appliances.
Genode’s release notes are always a sight to behold. Detailed, interesting, and always worth a read.
I’m still not sure what Genode is used for. Is it the type of thing I’d put in a smart light bulb? Is it a nice fit for a BeIA-type internet appliance? Do people put it on their desktop and use it as a daily driver?
What is a common use case for Genode?
Drumhellar,
It’s claim to fame is strong isolation and security that’s more robust than that found in conventional operating systems. However with that said I don’t know anyone who uses it either. In theory it should be a decent platform for virtualization… Does anyone here have hands on experience with it?
