 * Comment&mdash;First, note that the Xilinx Micro Kernel turns up in several searches; that's not the XMK-abbreviated RTOS we're looking for. Best cite so far for this XMK is:
 * (subscription probably required, pdf on request). Compares 15 different RTOSs, but doesn't provide a whole lot of specifics.
 * I'll see what else I can dig up. Lesser Cartographies (talk) 06:13, 26 August 2014 (UTC)


 * I found this, which looks like a headed section of a textbook. I do not think we should delete this article. James500 (talk) 15:20, 27 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Nice catch! I googled on the snipped that was provided and found this, which duplicates the snippet exactly (aside from the cite).  The single paragraph reads:  3.5.3 XMK XMK (eXtreme Minimal Kernel) [XMK] is an open-source real-time kernel that is designed to fit very small microcontrollers, yet be scalable up to larger systems. A minimal kernel configuration requires only 340 bytes of ROM and 18 bytes of RAM. TCP/IP support is provided by either lwIP or uIP. XMK is distributed under a 3-clause BSD license.  If I had to guess, I'd say this was copied out of the book you found, and I can't say from this whether or not there would have been more in your book.

 * I can't find the last two sentences in GBooks. Nor does "3.5.3" appear in that book before that snippet. James500 (talk) 05:45, 28 August 2014 (UTC)
