Ask HN: Minix 3 in go? to do or not do?

  Sure. Why not? It's idiotic if you think you by doing so you can replace MS Windows on everyone's desktops within 15 years. It's great if you think it will give you an understanding of how to write a operating system.

      You might want to start with something like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xv6 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xv6 , which is more designed for educational purposes. MINIX3, unlike its predecessors, was not design with that as a goal.
