int war();	/* declaration of war */

Among the codewords used in World War II to cloak the US's development
of the atomic bomb was "S-1" (others were MANHATTAN ENGINEERING DISTRICT,
THE GADGET, etc.). I wonder whether this new operating system will detonate.....

There is a current S1 project at LLL (Lawrence Livermore Labs) - I have
no idea what it is about, however.

The referenced article reminds me of Microsoft's example for adding
custom local system calls - they supply a `nukewar()' subfunction, 
complete with detailed descriptions and Radio Shack part numbers.

The S-1 project at LLNL is engaged in supercomputer research.  We
are completing our second machine (the S-1 Mark IIa) and are
working on the design of its successor.  In addition to porting
UNIX to the S-1, there is an operating system development effort
underway (it is called Amber).  The S-1 project is unclassified;
the choice of the same name as the early Manhattan Project is
coincidental.

There is no connection between the S-1 project at LLNL and the
recently-advertised S1 operating system.
