Thanks for the update.

True!

I liked the idea that you can build a system with only specific
servers, while you have a minimalistic TBC. And also that you can try
different kernels. That is something which is really cool, from other
POSIX systems where integration and testing takes lot of time, IMO.

I don't have concrete application/product in mind, but, device drivers
would be a good place for me to start, and explore with genode.
