Another GNU/Linux distro?

Can you give us more details please about this. A screen shot is not enough :)

This not a Linux distro, this is a new Operating System built from scratch. Linux distros are built on Linux kernel, but here we are building our own kernel.
It was basically intended to be the first operating system made entirely by arab programmers. Also as students we are making it to learn and apply our knowledge.
Currently the projects includes 4 colleages of mine.
The image shows the screenshot from VMware of the kernel's main() function, after being loaded by GRUB. It shows the remaining parts of the kernel to be implemented.
