Book authors are welcome. If you are really serious about writing a full
Haiku book I'm sure there's certain computer book publishers who might be
interested.

Check the vlc volume slider? Guessing you probably did, but thought I'd
take a shot.

Icon-O-Matic seems to have a high learning curve, but it's also very
powerful (and still over my head).

We are sort of a side project, but some of our contributions have been added
into Haiku, so we're unofficial official i guess? Read through the wiki
page on the site and when you are ready to join:

The dev(s) working on Abiword seem to also be working on a few other OSS
projects and haven't had much time to work on it lately. But we have added
a portlog page to haikuports for it, to help put targets on the various
dependencies for it:

So in case anyone is looking for a side project, perhaps try knocking out
some of those dependencies.
