-The goal is to run RTEMS virtual on POK inside a software partition.
-
-The [https://docs.google.com/document/d/10SWiyYg6WEeMdAeysyahbS6XK5QwyIMlUvAr4aFOyX4/edit Proposal] will be open for everyone, after the application deadline (May 3, 2013).
-
-Up to date source code can be found in the branches of my fork of the RTEMS/rtems repo on [https://github.com/phipse/rtems github].
+The project's goals were first, to introduce a virtualization layer into RTEMS, easing the virtualization of RTEMS across different hypervisors and second, to implement a proof of concept on POK. 
+POK is a partitioned operating system, separating applications in different software partitions from each other.
+This is not exactly what one would call hypervisor, but as POK is ARINC 653 compliant and RTEMS is not, it would be a great benefit to become standard compliant this way.
+
+The first half of this page debates obstacles and solutions inside RTEMS and discuss shortly the approach in the project of the previous year.
+The difficulties I was facing in POK weren't clear to me, when I was writing the proposal and discussing the design.
+The second half of the page explains the implementation, difficulties, remaining work and future steps. 
+
+The [https://docs.google.com/document/d/10SWiyYg6WEeMdAeysyahbS6XK5QwyIMlUvAr4aFOyX4/edit Project proposal] can be found on google docs.
+
+Up to date source code can be found in my [https://github.com/phipse/rtems rtems repo] in the ''virt-pok'' branch and in the [https://github.com/phipse/pok POK repo] on github.
