Another point I think we should note is the possible distinction between R1 changes, and R2 changes. Some of these ideas are much better suited for post-R1 perhaps? I tend to think that R1 is supposed to be the modern update of BeOS, sticking close to the original, whereas after that we are free to break from that mold and go with more drastic design changes leading into R2. The "glass ceiling" changes I believe they were referred to as.
Yes and lets start R2 now, waiting for R1 to finish just stalls the whole project. I think the R1 BeOS compatibility goal served the project very well to get to a certain point but now it just slows it down :(
I'm for an official R2 developer branch. That would give developers who are more interested in new features a better platform.
