This brings Sia Lang to mind, there was much discussion on his plan to put

That was about two or three(?) years ago, and nothing further. Maybe he
found it too complicated.
More like a year, and most likely he was just a troll.
Anyway, such projects do (or rather, did) exist.
You can find BlueEyedOS (for which the sources were never released) and
Cosmoe. BlueEyedOS was implemented from scratch. Cosmoe tried to reuse
some parts of Haiku sources.
Cosmoe sources are available on Github, so if people think the future of
BeOS-like operating system should use a Linux or BSD kernel, that's
where they should put their efforts. We will happily share code with
them, but it would not be Haiku. And Cosmoe is a cool name, too, so
that's not too bad. It would be nice to have more Be-inspired systems
competing/cooperating again, rather than just Haiku.
