Two things:

1) You can't do OSF/1 without Mach.  They are one in the same.

2) No one, especially OSF, has said much of anything about
OSF/2.  The implication that OSF will or must go to Mach 3.0 in
OSF/2 is pure speculation, and spreading such rumours is at best
irresponsible.  Indeed, OSF has mentioned several posibilities,
most notably going with an Ameoba-like kernel down the road.  Why
don't we worry about getting a solid OSF/1 release before we
start speculating about the Next Generation....
