The Core Groups

General Core Design
States and Initializations
Long-term Memories
Distributed Long-term Memories
Performance and Security

The Core Groups, which are lead by the project founder, deal with all the aspects of the core, the core-up programs, and all file-system objects. Naturally these groups are highly selective. Expect it to take several days or weeks to finally decide whether to accept you, if you wish to join.

If you want to understand some of what's going on but can't afford books on Intel architecture then visit brother Arzie's Home Page. It has a large stockpile of the material you're looking for.

(Formally Core-up)

This group works on a hardware-platform native multi-OS bootstrap and core-up program called the Core-up, as well as the daunting Installation Program. Very shortly both the documents and the TASM source for the i386 will be available.

PERFORMANCE AND SECURITY

Performance and Security

Page
OCI/Spec Documentation

How else can we say this? This is our internal hacking group. While they do develop tight mind-numbing system performance monitoring programs, mostly they just sit around and devise ways to compromise the security features of Grail as well as how to crash it.
