Haiku being open source, I think the situation has changed a bit. Our stance
with translators and so on is that we shall include at least all the ones
that support reading a format. So if anyone writes a new translator today, it
should become part of the repository, hopefully, and then it should also use
BaseTranslator.
And even for everything else, I think the Haiku repository should be one of
the first addresses for anyone wanting to look at example code which uses the
API.
Best regards,
