Minix has continued into the Minix 3 project. Note that Minix-vmd provides mostly a superset of the features of Minix 2.0.4 and earlier and can execute binaries of those Minix (i386) versions. Minix 3 introduced a number of new features of its own such as device drivers that run as separate processes (instead of kernel tasks as in earlier versions of Minix) and new system calls such as select(2).
