Taligent was to be part of the application
framework. The microkernel used by Pink and
the object model were "toys". Much of the consternation over Taligent at IBM
was fighting
over trying to get fundamental issues addressed (which I won't go into here...it
would take
many hours to compose a sane account).
Did some of the Taligent codebase end up in SUN's Java implementation,
perhaps the libraries?
I encourage you to add to the story of Taligent. I remember at the
time Taligent gained a lot of press attention, particularly when Apple
was struggling with what to do with their operating system and Pink
was seen as the answer.
