Hopefully MINIX will arrive (for me) any day now.  Given a choice of
MINIX or nothing, I'd say that MINIX is not dead.  UNIX/BSD/MACH, etc.
might be nice, but I'm not about to wait for them.

Actually, I'd prefer writing my own O/S in 32000 assembly language (so,
you think I'm sick, so what?  I enjoy 32000 assembly language).  I'd like to
use MINIX as a model.  I might be willing to write the kernel in assembly
(FM, MM, DM, PM, and other trinkets), but I'm not about to rewrite all the
utilities in *any* language.  MINIX sources make an excellent specification
for this project.
