## Status of Other Kernels
### FreeBSD
FreeBSD has solid upstream LLVM support which would make it ideal for iglunix.
However, I haven't been successful at building the required parts of the base
system.
### OpenBSD
OpenBSD's build system is much easier to work with that FreeBSD's (we can just
cd to the required directories, run make and install required files). However,
I wasn't successful on getting upstream clang to build working binaries so
the system can't be self hosting at the moment.
### Darwin
I have found no easy way of building libc on Darwin platforms as on yet.
Because of this I haven't got far at all porting Iglunix to Darwin
based systems such as MacOS and PureDarwin.
## TODO
- WebKit - Need to port WebKit somehow since no browers will build for this
- Wayland Compositors - No Wayland compositors currently work perfectly. I think this is because of the lack of udev or lack of logind
- LLVM (Work out how to split packages)
- FreeBSD Kernel (bootloader?, syslinux should support it)
- FreeBSD libc? Standalone build how? (rly need LLVM libc)
- Init system (parallel stuff and dependencies)
- QEMU for multiarch
- Lots of work on package manager still required
