Perhaps the beginnings of a "Porting software to Haiku" document that starts with some initial advice and eventually can be fleshed out to include other tips and suggestions.
Well, I did ask about a place for porting information some weeks ago and the only real suggestion that came up was BePorts iirc. I'd welcome such "official" information on the website.
But somehow contrary to what François has listed, Ingo (or was it Axel?) has specifically asked not to base Haiku ports on BeOS ports because some workarounds may no longer be necessary. Thus, searching for BONE or R5 ports on BeBits should not be a high priority on the checklist.
IM Kit btw seemed to be native BeOS software, not a port. Andreas
