A lot of people have been talking about switchers, multitaskers, minix, etc. Are any of you actually _working_ on any of these things? I don't have the technical expertise to do this kind of programming and I know it, otherwise I'd give it a shot. I know Daemon is out there, but since I haven't gotten it from Apple2-l yet, I can't really evaluate it. Is someone trying to actually do these things or we all just spouting empty wishes?

I'm not actively working on anything yet. However, discussion & design of
these things is very important before actually digging in. Secondly, I don't
know if I'm actually going to have time to take such a project to completion
on my own time. That's why I'm sharing any ideas or suggestions I have.
Very simple addage: Look before you leap.
