So, in a way it seems to be = a port of Plan 9.

More details, including = the feature list below, are at http://harvey-os.org

= Features

=E2=80=A2 = AMD 64 bit
=E2=80=A2 Modern, simplified = syscall system
=E2=80=A2 GCC toolchain means you = can use gdb(!)
=E2=80=A2 Compile in Linux or OSX = using Harvey's headers and libs, no need to change anything else
= =E2=80=A2 Fast compilation of the whole system
=E2=80=A2 = All Plan9 userland apps available
=E2=80=A2 = Plans to add X11 with rio-like multiplexing, tty driver, new fileserver, = native toolchain and more

I=E2=80=99m = intrigued by the =E2=80=9Ccompile =E2=80=A6 using Harvey's headers and = libs, no need to change anything else=E2=80=9D =E2=80=94
I = guess that means that it will be easy to =E2=80=9Cport=E2=80=9D stuff to = Harvey?

I found this part particularly neat:
