The answer turned out to be a small core. With plugins in place since 0.2.0, it has become something more useful to describe as an operating system for web traffic.</p> <p>The comparison is meant as a way to see how the parts fit. BareProxy doesn&rsquo;t run hardware. But it has the same shape as a good operating system, and the shape explains the design.</p>
