I looked at your link, Chromium OS design Documents.Sure seems that you need Google in the equation, because the COS (Chrom Op Sys) calls home and stores stuff at Google servers in their warehouses. Does anyone think there is a good way to make an "Iron OS" without Google storage? Like you say, a non-Google OS based on Chromium OS but without calling home to Google? Any ideas? Thanks!
