By "introduction". This can occur directly (I one a capability to the other) or indirectly (I hand each one the same mutable namespace). The thing you need to remember is that inserting and removing from the name space is fundamentally wasted work. The goal was to transfer a capability from one process to the other. Why not simply do that directly? shap _______________________________________________ L4-hurd mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/l4-hurd
