QNX Operating System: Project overview
This project is the place to develop the crown jewels of QNX: the QNX® Neutrino® Realtime Operating System (QNX6) and key libraries. The operating system is composed of the kernel and the process manager. Because it's a microkernel OS,
device drivers,
network stacks, filesystems and the like are maintained in separate projects. These projects will be created as the source is released.
What is Neutrino?
QNX Neutrino is a realtime microkernel operating system. It's scalable, embeddable, networked, SMP-capable, memory protected, and cool. Plus it has a POSIX interface so no one has an excuse to not use it. The OS supports several processor families, including x86, ARM, XScale, PPC, MIPS, and SH-4.

Read the Legal Stuff: Licenses
- The QNX source is licensed to you by QSS under the QNX Non-Commercial End User License Agreement, Commercial Software License Agreement, or Partner Software License Agreement (see http://licensing.qnx.com/developer-licenses/).
- Failure to abide by licensing rules will result in your bank balance being spontaneously converted into lawyers' fees. :)
