This article is subject to further change and upheavals. Revision 1.

OpenKernel is a new, upcoming sub-project of OpenXP, intended to gradually replace Windows NT kernel provided in Windows Server 2003 source code tree. In difference of ReactOS, OpenKernel will be intended for more stability, reliability and optimized behavior, in order to be flexible and expandable in modern terms of operating system development.

Description

OpenKernel is an inspiration of combining original NT kernel with Microsoft's MinWin project, which is the partial refactor of the first one. Also huge accent will be placed into Linux principles of kernel development, because NT structure is itself great and promising, therefore rewrite of NT kernel is need, to turn NT into a really portable system.
