  1. Chris is very active on supporting the community. by qnx6 · · Score: 5, Informative

    If you read the QNX community site, you will see that cdm is very active in the forums, answering questions from QNX users. For the other QNX employees that do "say" something, the number of posts are far behind. cdm is also "full time" on the #qnx irc channel at irc.qnxstart.com. Drop by if you wanna say hi to him :)

  2. It's QNX Neutrino by variable · · Score: 5, Informative

    QNX Momentics is our development toolset - it exists on Windows, Solaris and Neutrino. The "desktop" OS is actually QNX Neutrino.
