Can you create a Version for normal private user? then it would be an alternative to Linux/Unix

The IRC server you guys are using is pretty annoying to try and connect to(oftc). I was wondering whether it would be possible to change to freenode instead?

Secure Coding Guidelines for the Java Programming Language

It may be a good idea to try to follow the principles outlines in the following document:
Secure Coding Guidelines for the Java Programming Language.
All points are important at their place but those mentioned under "1. Accessibility and Extensibility" apply to basically every class of a system and are particularly important for the most essential core classes and packages of JNode.
It will be a good read to all.

persistent file system

How can I setup JNode to use a persistent file. Currently it look like a RAM disk in VMWare player. After a reboot all changes are lost.

If this is currently not possible then can you give me some hints where I can contribute to make this possible.
