Thank you for helping me understand the goals of HelenOS. Knowing the limits of posix compliance helps. A working python helps, regardless of version. A simple web server is easy to write, and I could do that. I could also write a DNS server. While SSH may not be the best solution, I'd say that it is practical. I don't know that I could easily write one from scratch, but perhaps port OpenSSH or a simpler ssh.
But all that's for naught if there's not a writable file system. I am not familiar enough with the internals of HelenOS to know what is required to achieve this. Perhaps, then, this ought to be a higher priority than the issues I had previously mentioned. For now, I am going to use OpenBSD as the non-Linux alternative for my group, and let other groups in the company use it as they see fit. I like the Microkernel architecture of Minix3 & HelenOS, but Minix3 lacks some features needed and HelenOS hasn't developed to the point where I can use it, yet.
