[We are currently migrating from codeplex](http://cosmos.codeplex.com/)
Cosmos is an operating system "construction kit", built from the ground up around the IL2CPU compiler in C# and our home-brewed language called X#.
It's current stage is only usable for academic work. Some day Cosmos will be ready for production work, but to reach that stage we need more developers. Specifically, we need a few more low level developers to help the few core developers who are currently overwhelmed with work.
