Hi okl4.org,

Carl, many thanks,

*Do you know the reasons behind it?, security?, doesn't that adds too much
overhead?, wouldn't it be great for users applications to i.e. L4 IPC for
communication with wombat's kernel?

*what mechanisms are best used for proxy writing or which one do you
recommend?

Do Wombat's user space application have iguana's tid, can they  tid =
myself()?

Thanks again,

Jorge
