Abstract
This paper describes the basic components of the L3 operating system and the experiences of the first two years using it. The system results from scientific research, but is addressed to commercial application. It is based on a small kernel handling tasks, threads and dataspaces. User level device drivers and file systems are described as examples of flexible OS services realized outside the kernel.
