I threw in all the buzz words I could think of.

fat process (fork) these are my bread and butter
pthread (thin process), I don't do these yet

real-time, as you probably know, is a system that responds to outside stimuli 
fast enough to be successful in its mission.  THis a pretty mushy definition.

The POSIX standard includes r-t elements.  I don't know the POSIX standard 
beyond how to spell it.

I've spent lots of time doing r-t systems.  I very new at doing them in 
GNU/Linux.  So far, so good.  I'm very impressed.  There are embedded Linux 
efforts, but that's not what I'm proposing a discussion on (but we could end 
up there).

I am thinking about exposing my app to the world at sometime.  I'd like to 
get it reviewed in a smaller group leading up to that point.  That's my 
motivation to discuss r-t apps.
