LinuxFr.org : Finaly what are your dream for MINIX? Take over the world?
Andrew Tanenbaum : I am too modest for that. One thing I would like is that when microkernels take over the world, which I fully expect, is that we at
least get a footnote. Many hypervisors are getting more and more functionality over time until they are indistinguishable from a microkernel, only not
designed well. With the Android people and Microsoft moving more and more code into user space, we are also moving in that direction.
Being ahead of your time is never good. I published a paper in 1978 on something very close to the Java Virtual Machine, but we never got much credit for
it although we were years ahead of Sun. Such is life sometimes.
