sMultiTA 
http://www.dobit.com/emblin/smultita.htm

World's smallest, but full functioning, software extension for MultiTAsking. Very small 200 lines, coded in C, simple, no interrupts or blocking, for hard realtime use; portable, easy to reconfigure to other systems. [Open Source, GPL]

JTMOS 
http://www.fortunecity.com/tattooine/obiwan/32/

Operating system aimed at OS developers and users who are very advanced at using computers generally; microkernel, multitasking, multithreaded, some garbage collection. [Open Source]

LinksOS 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/linksos/

To be fast, secure, straightforward, fill gap between OS X, Linux, Windows, built on microkernel, coded in Assembly, C/C++; for desktops, workstations, small servers. Description, mail list, OS design documents, CVS, downloads. [Open Source, BSD]
