[edit] expansion ideas

More columns for

  • royalties and fees
  • open source or closed source
  • approximate deployment numbers
  • initial date of development

Good idea. What about these? (see also: Template:Infobox OS)
  • Company/Developer
  • Programmed in
  • Notes/Comments

What about:
  • Latest release
  • Latest release date
This should help to sort out active projects from old/dead projects or systems interesting only as historical reference.

The release number often creates a quagmire of updates. Anyway, the status column is intended to reflect whether it is still supported and under development. —EncMstr (talk) 17:58, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] external links from original article

This hive of external links used to be in the original article before the split; they should be incorporated into the appropriate entries in this article.

[edit] Are WindowsCE and SymbianOS really RTOS ?

I am not sure those can be classified as "RTOS", possible targets are embedded devices but this alone does not give them real time capabilities. Probably we should put them among the general purpose operating systems.N'SallaNuto (talk) 08:06, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
