Hi, my name is Warren Greenway, founder of Pygmy OS and the Pygmy Project. We are currently looking for a few good developers to join the core team in preparation for our first stable public release. Pygmy OS is an RTOS development package aimed at bringing ARM controllers ( STM32 specifically at this point ) to the masses. Please read my blog post below and feel free to contact me if interested.

Hi, What are you offering that FreeRTOS doesn't already offer?

Thanks!

It is a different approach and isn't really intended to compete directly with FreeRTOS. Pygmy OS is intended to be much more user friendly and more flexible overall in included features and size of binary. It is unlikely that either RTOS will ever be the only kid on the block, different firmware solutions are more or less suitable for different projects. In the end you will likely choose Pygmy OS for prototyping, hobby robotics and educational systems due to the simplicity of the interface provided to developers.
