Thanks all! Is it possible to send the white paper on this mailing-list
once it is done?

Reading at the manual, there are still some unclear behavior: how the
signals are managed (e.g. what happens when issuing a
seL4_Wait/seL4_Signal() between threads having different criticality which
then raise the question of priority inversion and impact on budgets), how
one can design a fixed timelime schedule with several timeslices per
threads (as in ARINC653/MILS kernels).

Anyway, I will wait the white paper, it will probably address most (if not
all) these questions!

Julien.
