Milestone 0.2.0

The 0.2.0 milestone validates the extensibility of the system and the maturity of its development ecosystem. While 0.1.0 proved the kernel architecture, 0.2.0 focuses on expanding hardware abstractions and establishing the primitives required for complex user-space compositions.

This stage requires the implementation of high-throughput subsystems for network interfaces and graphics adapters. These implementations must strictly adhere to the zero-copy architecture, ensuring that framebuffers and packet streams are handled via memory ownership transfer rather than kernel buffering.

The security model is finalized through the completion of the capability-based permission system and the introduction of Stateless Library Injection (SLI). This mechanism replaces traditional dynamic linking by allowing the runtime mapping of immutable code dependencies into process address spaces, enforcing strict versioning and dependency isolation.

Additionally, this milestone establishes the software supply chain infrastructure. This includes cryptographic package authentication, remote dependency resolution, and version management protocols.

Finally, the release of the Distribution Development Kit (DDK) validates the system's modularity. This tooling must enable the reproducible construction of custom system images, supporting configurations ranging from general-purpose environments to single-process sovereign appliances.
