[plt-scheme] Re: Question about scheme os for information appliances

[Just joined this list. Just started using PLT Scheme.]

Another use for a "Lisp OS" would be in the "blade server" area.

The "autonomic computing" idea is appealing... self-managing
applications and services. 

(http://www.research.ibm.com/autonomic/overview/)

Rather than retrofit existing database and app-server architectures
to be self-managing, re-invent better architectures, build
them in Scheme, load them into a box, and sell them.

Also the "model driven architecture" idea is appealing... but the
models and targets are still pretty cumbersome.

What is people without a lot of CS could define models, package
them into self-managing boxes, and sell them?
