Does anyone here have any experience with TRON? (I didn't realise it was open-sourced before) Every few years I read an article about it, and it's obviously not going away. I'm also vaguely curious if there has been much/any uptake outside of Japan.
TRON is rarely used outside of Japan because the specification documents are mostly in Japanese. TRON is more like an industry standard for an embedded RTOS than a concrete implementation. Of course, some open-source code is available, but these are reference implementations. More info:
Opportunity knocks! I had heard of this way back when but always assumed it had died when the US was lobbying the Japanese government to scale back MITI.
Does anyone else remember MSX? Looks like it never quite went away.
