I think the current problems are a) stability and b) robustness of the
implementation. By the later, I mean that there is lots of ways to do the
same thing using the APIs. All of them need to work, not just a few, so
that much more apps work (and display) fine. Than, pretty much anything is
possible as a demo. In one month, there is a good chance that Tracker and
Deskbar will work quite well, which is of course one of the nicest demos
there can be for the Haiku project. :-)
Hm... missing parts... Of course one good way to see what's missing and
where to help is to simply try some random app under Haiku and investigate
the cause of something not working. The BPicture support should be broken
right now, maybe some particular apps don't work because of that. But I'm
sure there is more.
Also, there is lot's of TODOs in the code about loading and saving setting
files for various things. Fonts and Screen prefs are the most obvious.
Best regards,
-Stephan
