ssolie says this:
"X-Kernel Update
[...]
- All cores schedule tasks independently
- Load balancing between cores"

"Cyrus just happens to use the x-kernel exclusively unlike the X1000 which can run either kernel. At some point we'll merge the two kernel streams together of course."

Well, let's see...
Yeah, "merge the two kernel streams together"...
I don't even know where to start on that statement, it's ... surreal! Does he have a clue at all? "Merging kernel streams", I mean, WTF? What? Why? How? One is obviuosly the old "Exec SG" made by the Friedens (made for the OS4 which aims to be Amiga compatible), the new one (wonder who is doing that one BTW, maybe ssolie himself?) is SMP enabled and thus incompatible to the Amiga environment! "Merge" these?
"Well, let's see" indeed!
Well, after all, this is "ssolie", the man who "has an amazing grasp of Amiga programming, so much so that he has re-written the 'C' language to make it more Amiga efficient"!
So who knows?
MorphOS is Amiga
done right! 
MorphOS NG will be AROS
done right!
